Yup, you are right. It seems to be a software issue.I have faced this annoying thing many times, it happens now and then. I think what happens is that the adb's connection with the device/emulator breaks or becomes faulty, so android starts showing the device as offline.

To correct this problem. Go to DDMS-->Devices Tab-->Click the option "Reset adb" (which is the last option, on clicking the dropdown arrow) . You will then see some error report in the console, but after a minute your emulator would be ready to be used without problems. I do it all the time and it works. Try this instead of manually plugging/unplugging the device.
