I don’t know if I have Volumio 3 or not.
I have been having a few issues getting Volumio set up. First one was the fact I was registered as a user already, and why I am here posting this question. However, when I tried to proceed with the installation process of setting up Volumio on new Home Network, I was not able to complete process until I registered a new account using the same email and username, except the password has changed is all 
Ok, issue number 2 was the fact I could not find the IP address of my PI, even the modem didn’t show up there either, finally, downloaded a new version of Volumio, flashed the MicroSD card, wrote the ISO using Pi Imager, reformatted and reinitialized the MicroSD card, it was quite the process… I didn’t understand all the resistance with the hardware and software… good lord!!! Anyway… I was finally able to configure everything, add a SSD to the Pi with Media, and ya, well, It works.
I am getting this terrible noise from the player, even when there is no media playing it is a constant sound of like a flow of, I’m going to say, electricity, kinda erratic, chirpy sounding, but quiet in the background, variable sound around, 1k hz I want to say, maybe a little higher frequencies, but ya, it is persistent, and when you play music, it is still there, when you turn up volume, it gets louder as well. I removed the Network Cable, I removed the Power Cable, I moved the Pi from different locations, to see if there was RFI frequencies affecting this device, I noticed in the past the same thing was true several years ago.
I have a Pi Hat attached to the Pi4B Allo Piano 2.1 DAC and I remember it working flawlessly in the past, without Volumio, anyway… There are still issues for me to work out, but if it is going to make this noise all the time, I will have to figure something else out.
Now, I closed the window that this post was being prepared in, thinking it was me signed in from my old account with the same name and email address. I open Volumio go to Community, and I am already there… Now, I also signed in with a Smart Phone, and Downloaded the App, which also has me signed in with my old email (which is the same one I used to Sign Up for New Account with same email address, only difference was password was changed), on this device, I changed my Profile Picture, and it isn’t showing up in my Volumio Profile here on my PC that I am signed in to Volumio with…
WTF is going on??
I have both, Wired Connection and Wifi Connection, Which one is actually being used when Wire is plugged in at same time Wifi is being used? Does it default to Wired Connection once wire (network cabling, i.e., Cat 5 with RJ45 connectors) is plugged in?
I was trying to copy the IP address, the way it was displayed in the browser address bar, and google didn’t recongnize the address, I copy enter it into a Firefox browser, and Volumio opens up GUI right where I left off with Google and Smart Phone App…
Alright, this is interesting for sure. Lots to Unpack here. Hope this info gets some support, perhaps it will trigger some others to chime in as well with their experiences.
Thanks.
Mostly high pitch continuous noises are a result of a bad power supply, interference from multiple power supplies, failing components or ground loops. This can be narrowed down by excluding a single component and test again.
Prob. with chrome you might want to clear the cache (CTRL+F5) and retry.
As far as I am aware, the cabled network should be the primary one. If you enabled both Volumio is accessibly by both ip’s as shown in the network overview.
