IRremote library sometimes leaves led on

As reported in this topic (sending samsung tv raw ir codes) sometimes the led stays on after transmitting.

I see that the library defines these macros:

#define TIMER_ENABLE_PWM     (TA1CTL = TASSEL_2 + MC_1) // SMCLK, Up mode  
#define TIMER_DISABLE_PWM    (TA1CTL = TASSEL_2 + MC_0) // SMCLK, Stop mode
#define TIMER_ENABLE_INTR    ({ /*TA1CTL |= TAIE;*/ TA1CCTL0 |= CCIE;}) // SH 071112 
#define TIMER_DISABLE_INTR   ({TA1CTL &= ~TAIE; TA1CCTL0 &= ~CCIE;})
#define TIMER_INTR_NAME      TIMER1_A0_VECTOR
#define TIMER_CONFIG_KHZ(val) ({ \
      TA1CCTL0 |= OUTMOD_4;      \
      TA1CCR0 = FOSC/val/2;      \
})

and to send a space it uses TIMER_DISABLE_PWM.

Now, I don't know exactly how the timers in a msp430 work, but OUTMOD_4 is Toggle and MC_0 stops the timer.

Is it possible that if it is stopped when the led is on it will stay on?
