Hello everyone, I just installed Volumio and did some tests — the software is great. However, I am encountering the following issue. I can listen to music from my NAS or an internet radio. Everything works fine for a few minutes, then I get an error message: “Error: failed to open audio output.” and the playback stops. I have to press “Play” again for the music to resume. I am using a Raspberry Pi 4 with the latest version of Volumio and I am using the headphone output for sound.
Unlike other topics I’ve seen, the issue doesn’t occur all the time for me, but only after a certain amount of time.
thanks in advance for the help
