I've never seen that happen before, but I can tell you something else I do see that concerns me as to the possible problem:

That spot of what looks like spilled liquid just below the >> button. If it's booze, and it has spilled into the seek button, that would possibly explain why it's seeking forward when loading a track (but curiously not why it stops when you touch the platter / jog).
My recommendation is to have the unit serviced & cleaned.
