Spotify Connect won't start playing while Internet Radio is active, quick fix anyone?

Greetings,

Newbie here, just switched from Moode Audio, and I’m quite happy with Volumio so far.
The only issue that I have is that a Spotify Connect stream does not start playing when an Internet Radio stream is already active.

Of course, I did my research on that and found that this is somehow a known issue and “by design” because of the underlying Volumio architecture. It looks like few workarounds were suggested in the past, but some of them apparently only apply to older versions of Volumio (or the Autoplay plugin), and others are convoluted and involve adding own code via the console.

Before I go down this rabbit hole, is there maybe a quick and easy fix for Volumio 4 that I can easily implement, maybe just a setting that I missed or a plgin that I need to install? All I want is that Volumio stops all other input sources when Spotify Connect kicks in to allow it overtaking the audio output.

Sorry, if this is an FAQ and already answered somewhere. If it’s already there then it’s not easy to find :slight_smile:

Andreas
