Rules clarification required

Just wondering, does anyone out there know what happens if at the end of your shot in snooker one ball ends up balanced on top of another ball? Have you played a foul shot as the ball has ended up not on the bed of the table? But it has not really left the table as such. Perhaps I should ask Patsy Fagan.

I think the "end up on bed of table" will interpreted literally and a foul will be deemed to have occurred.

I assume it must be a foul, as otherwise the next player wouldn't be able to play a legitimate shot; they would either have to play a push or a jump, both of which are outlawed.
