Find the rewind line in the poll subroutine in the module and replace it with:
  # rewind to directory start
  # $heap->{DirHandle}->rewind;
  $heap->{DirHandle}->close;
  $heap->{DirHandle}->open($heap->{Directory})
    or croak "Can't open $heap->{Directory}: $!\n";

The module and your code seem to work with the above changes. (I've emailed the module author with a link to this thread).
