Media Engine throws MF_MEDIA_ENGINE_ERR_DECODE : HRESULT - 0x80004005 when dragging application from one display to another

I have two monitors connected to my computer.  One is connected via a VGA (15 pin) connection and the other is connected via a DVI connection.  If I start streaming on the VGA connected display, then while streaming drag and drop the application to the DVI connected display I get MF_MEDIA_ENGINE_ERR_DECODE : HRESULT - 0x80004005.  However, if I start streaming on the DVI connected display, then while streaming drag and drop the the app to the VGA connected display I get no error and the app continues to stream.  This is what I mean by "This happens when going to the DVI connected display only".

I have also tried pausing playback prior to dragging to the DVI connected display but upon resuming playback (un-pausing) I get the same error.  Doing this in the other direction (DVI -> VGA) yields no error.

I have not yet tested other multi-monitor scenarios i.e. VGA->HDMI, HDMI->DisplayPort, etc.
