Hello,
no news right now sorry.
Meantime please try 2 ways of troubleshoot:

  • disable MULTIROOM from Sources menu–>reboot the unit–>enable MULTIROOM
  • reboot the router

Thanks

After disable multiroom , reboot , enable multiroom , the music is not stopped immediately , It appears like some buffers gets full and only a reboot fix it ,

Hello @volumio @DED
I have understand that maybe there are other more important topics on the roadmap :slight_smile: , but at least to confirm that is a bug or not , you can , it is a pretty annoying bug , besides Qobuz this is he only feature from Premium plan that I am using it… Since I have another CA device and a bluetooth speaker I am planning to uset also in another room … but with issue is pretty hard .

Thanks

Hello,

we are currently investigating the issue. Understanding the root cause is proving to be quite complex, but we’re working on it.

In the meantime, have you tried rebooting your router? If so, did you notice any improvements?

Thank you for your patience

Do you have 3rd party plugins installed and enabled?
In case, try to uninstall them
