Using the "Restart current capture" button or Stopping then Starting a capture
often ends up capturing on a completely different interface. I say often since
when I trigger the restart quickly after starting a previous capture, all seems
to work as expected. For example, I started a capture on en5, captured for 5
min, hit the "Restart current capture", and ended up capturing on en0.
Most of the time it switches to en0 (which is my Wireless adapter).
