The Radio in my bedroom is always operated locally. My GF actually even
programs the alarms on the thing itself even after I showed her that it
is much easier to do using the web frontend. She never missed any alarm
but I can't really state that the issue discussed here never occurred.
Over the years we have had several occurrences of the fallback alarm
sounding but I always figured it was a WiFi issue and I can in fact
state that after inspection later I did see a red WiFi icon but I don't
really know if that was always the case. As I mentioned before my GF is
a fairly light sleeper and she often responses to nothing more than the
power on 'plop' sound, which I know because sometimes the paperboy wakes
me about an hour earlier and I have not fully dozed back but even then I
often miss the 'plop' but it is the 'bleep' from the poweroff button
pressed without having heard any music prior to that. What I found
during testing is that sometimes the Radio would turn on, then the
alarmOff signal was logged and executed, and after that the backup alarm
sounded. Intriguing as it is I really have no clue how many times that
may have happened if she hadn't killed it just from hearing the device
powering on.
