maybe it would be easier to just stick a 1 sec delay before the
randomize :)

You could use a number from /dev/random or /dev/urandom to initialize randseed (that's just a global variable in the system unit, which is the only thing that randomize() changes when you call it), instead of randomize(). Then you'll get the best of both worlds.
