Any hints?

Yes, create a log after the problem was reproduced.

I don’t think it makes sense to spend time chasing a bug in a version that will not be supported soon.

I would take a spare SD card and install Volumio 3.

That’s exactly what I did. Took a spare SD and installed Volumio 3. I had it running since last Friday, all looked good, especially on Sunday when the Internet connection dropped like 15 times and Volumio recovered w/o any problem.

I would have been happy to report everything is fine now, however, yesterday Volumio failed entirely. It finished playing a track from Bandcamp and could not put out any sound after that: Spotify, web radio, etc. The USB drive has been lost too. It recovered only a full restart (unplugging the power cable).

but seeing the sheer number of issues reported

I believe you are exaggerating a bit, you do realize that more than half of your “issues” are from people asking for help with tinkering? (which is actually a positive thing).
Yes, there are a number of issues which have an impact on the way some people use Volumio, but the volumio team is working hard to iron them out.

I don’t know if looking at the number of open issues in this thread is ‘exaggerating’. Maybe it is. And I do realise the issues might be caused by exotic setups and the majority of users would have something plain like my RPi4 / Topping E30. But remember, I have just tried 3 Volumio versions in a row all of which failed in one way or the other.
