Is there an explanation why the access to the pCP repos is (or can be) rather shaky. You're using one of the big German cable providers? Could it be related to a repo server capacity issue? pCP is using Cloudflare, one of (if not the) biggest CDNs. Why this repeatedly causes issue I don't

Response from Orchard Audio is fast. He said to try the RPi DAC - that doesn't change anything. BTW, as something weird, when I SSH'ed into the player and ran alsamixer - same as above. No controls. To me that seems very strange. Could it be that the update somehow missed a certain library,
