Wireshark-dev: [Wireshark-dev] New Dissector only applied to first packet

Hi,

I'm writing my first dissector based on the example in the Developers
Guide and README.developer.

I register my dissector for a certain port using

dissector_add_uint("udp.port", FOO_PORT, handle);

I notice that it only gets applied to the first packet that matches the
port and I can't apply it to other packets, not even using "Decode As".

How can I figure out what the problem might be ?

Thanks,
Jan
