Comment(by gdesmott):

 To provide a little bit more info about this.

 When service resolving fails, avahi is supposed to send queries in
 increasing intervals (2s, 4s, 8s, 16s...).
 So it can actually take a long time before the service is re-resolved (it
 depends on the length of the network failure).

 Otoh, I did some tests and Avahi doesn't seem to always send these queries
 according the supposed intervals. Maybe this should be investigated deeper
 into Avahi.

 Anyway, I think the suggested fix can't hurt and improve the current user
 experience in a lot of cases. So I'd say to merge it for now.
