You need to seek on the stream, like you did, then call DiscardBufferedData on the StreamReader. Documentation here:

Edit: Adding code example:

Stream s = new MemoryStream();
StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(s);
// later... after we read stuff
s.Position = 0;
sr.DiscardBufferedData();        // reader now reading from position 0
