Squeezelite Player 1.1.1 plugin not working on MiniDSP SHD (Studio)

Help and Support

Hi all,

Previously the Squeezelite Player plugin did not work for Volumio running on the MiniDSP SHD (Studio). With some manual tweaking and copying over an old release of Squeezelite, I managed to get it up and running. (Newer version always complained about an incorrect version of libc6.)

It seems the latest version (22-12-2021) of the plugin correctly installs a working version. However…when starting Squeezelite (either manually or as a Volumio managed service), it displays the following error message:

[16:31:43.945403] test_open:281 playback open error: No such file or directory
[16:31:43.945613] output_init_common:401 unable to open output device: default

When running Squeezelite with the -l parameter I do see the available sound cards:

Output devices:
null - Discard all samples (playback) or generate zero samples (capture)
pulse - PulseAudio Sound Server
default:CARD=I2Smaster - I2S-master, - Default Audio Device
sysdefault:CARD=I2Smaster - I2S-master, - Default Audio Device
dmix:CARD=I2Smaster,DEV=0 - I2S-master, - Direct sample mixing device
dsnoop:CARD=I2Smaster,DEV=0 - I2S-master, - Direct sample snooping device
hw:CARD=I2Smaster,DEV=0 - I2S-master, - Direct hardware device without any conversions
plughw:CARD=I2Smaster,DEV=0 - I2S-master, - Hardware device with all software conversions

But all of them (when using the -o param) give the same error. Any clues/ideas? Thanks!
