Systeem Freeze in March 2026 version

Volumio Development Bug reports
1

I greatly enjoy using the Volumio music player. Unfortunately, the most recent version (March 2026) has an annoying bug. When I use the Search function or select a large folder to play, the system freezes (meaning it play no music, but I still select menu’s and do a soft restart). Restarting Volumio does not resolve the issue. To recover from this, I have to disconnect the power from my Raspberry Pi 4 (32GB SD card) with an Allo Boss DAC.

The common factor in both situations seems to be that Volumio has to process a large amount of data.

I hope this information is helpful and that the issue can be resolved in the next version.

Volumio Version: 4.103
Hardware: Raspberry Pi 4
DAC: Allo Boss
Debug Log: Not available.

Dear Sir or Madam,

I greatly enjoy using the Volumio music player. Unfortunately, the most recent version (March 2026) has an annoying bug. When I use the Search function or select a large folder to play, the system freezes. All the menu’s can be reached, but nothing is playing anymore. Restarting Volumio does not resolve the issue. To recover from this, I have to disconnect the power from my Raspberry Pi 4 (32GB SD card) with an Allo Boss DAC.

The common factor in both situations seems to be that Volumio has to process a large amount of data (>1 TB).

I hope this information is helpful and that the issue can be resolved in the next version.

Volumio Version: March 2026
Hardware: Raspberry Pi 4
DAC: Allo Boss
