I stopped the AE just now, it was still working fine after something like 12hrs. When I started the test yesterday evening the AE stopped after 1hr, then again after 1 or 2 tracks. So I increased the network buffer to 1000ms, relaunched, and it ran just fine this time. AAC-only playlist, no transcoding. The AE is wired, it has a DHCP reservation with a fixed address and an infinite lease. The DHCP server is on a linux VM on the Lan. > I've been able to better corner the problem.

Then perhaps I cannot rule out a transient problem with access to the music files? My LMS server is a linux VM which accesses the files via NFS (over udp, server in the VM host machine.) I can't really say I ever had problems playing music, but I have already seen the NFS server go unresponsive for a little while. Unlikely, but a possibility.
The computing environment is not quite standard here. For further tests, I could install a dedicated machine with a local drive. That would look much more like a regular home setup. I had in -indefinitely postponed- plan to reassemble the scattered bits and pieces of a linux 32 bit x86 (Core Solo), 1GB RAM machine. This should provide a reliable platform. Or I can acquire yet another Raspi 2 (these work so nice I keep giving them away it seems...) Wouldn't be any bother.
