Steps to Reproduce

1. start playing an album on MyVolumio / Tidal
2. 6s before the end of the first song playback will stop

Additional Information

I’m using MyVolumio “Superstar” and a Tidal “Premium” (not “HiFi”) account.
The Volumio version (3.055) is the latest beta in the Volumio Buster Beta program. I’m sure that it worked well with continuous playback of several songs in the playlist (album, whatever) some days before. So I presume that there might be a general issue with MyVolumio and Tidal…
Playback of Tidal songs and albums works correctly when I’m using the Tidal WEB interface.

My MyVolumio has upgraded four days ago from “Virtuoso” to “Superstar”. I don’t know if there can be a correlation to that…?

Here are some similar experiences:

Tidal is freezing out after every four to eight change and i have to restart

Hi there, Im using volumio for quite some time and this problem of mine getting worse by now. The problem is that with only Tidal - with spotify itsnt happening at all - after a few changes like selecting a new album, or step one track on the album Tidal is freezing out. Not playing anything, an to make it work again I have to restart the volumio. This is quite annoying since I used to listen music a lot hence I have to restart volumio at least every half an hour. As i mentioned spotify is t…

Tidal not playing on volumio 2.861

I can connect to my account because I can see my Artists etc. However pressing play does not result in any music being played or even the play button changing to pause. Rebooting doesn’t make any difference. Also even though my NAS media library is mounted none the the songs display. I have connected using ssh using volumio and have access to the files. My environmennt is Rapberry Pi 4 with 8GB mem 32GB SD card, Hifiberry dac+ pro. Volumio version is 2.861. apt-apt upgrade was run yesterday. …

btw: updating mpd to a new version is obsolete because volumio 3.055 has already mpd version “Music Player Daemon 0.22.3 (0.22.3)”.

If I can help with additional information, please let me know.

It is very similar to what I get with Qobuz… And sometimes, with local files. Seems mpd is in cause, or alsa pipeline.

Today everything is working fine again with Tidal.
Seems to be a server-based problem that apparently has been solved…

server-based problem

I have a similar problem with Qobuz running within Volumio 2 or 3 Beta on a Tinker Board with a Virtuoso subscription. Either playback stops or skips to the next track in middle of a track. Playback usually can be restarted. My suspect is Volumio sometimes is not able to recover from server issues.

I can´t remember to face this problem using BubbleUPnP streaming Qobuz via Volumio.

Now I see this problem again. 6s before the end of the song playback mutes, the playback clock runs until the end of the song and then no more playback is possible.

When I then make a change at the “Playback Options” and change to another “Output Device” plaback is working again.

I fear it’s no server sided problem but an issue with MPD or ALSA …?
