How are you selecting and playing BBC Radio 3?
For example, if you are using the BBC iPlayer plugin then it can try to
give access to the stream at 320 bps.
Is there anything in the LMS log?
Since you have SSH session to the server you could run
tail -f server.log

Is The R3 and other radio streams a new problem ?
Were you able to play R3 OK before ?
What other station have problems ?
What is your version of LMS ?
If LMS is not up to date (even 6 months may be too old) with latest
https support - there are instances of system hangup.
Thanks for the swift replies!

Either using the LMS web interface or jivelite on the touch screen.

to give access to the stream at 320 bps.

Brilliant advice. Lots to change then.

I don't use docker nor know about its shortcomings. It is likely that
the "official" docker image will be kept up to date and tackle docker
specific issues.
The term NAS covers a wide range of hardware so if you have problems,
the best way to see if it can be "fixed" is to report your symptom
Are you running LMS on your pCP installation?
If not - then that is an option for you ... although it will be better
with an Ethernet connection (if you are using only Wifi).

What is the audio output device on the Pi ?
What is the squeezelite command line being used ?
Except for MP3 which is 44.1kHz, BBC streams are 48kHz. There have been
problems with some users who have set up audio output options mainly to
support 44.1kHz and so 48kHz streams caused odd problems.
I'm using a Hifiberry Digi.
The squeezelite command is /usr/local/bin/squeezelite -n "Living Room"
-o hw:CARD=sndrpihifiberry -a 80:4::1: -s 192.168.2.10 -v
Not doing anything deliberately with the sample rate, just going with
the flow.

I agree that the USB out is a big step up from 3.5mm audio out.
If there are not budget constraints then I'd highly recommend the Khadas
Tone Board and Audiophonics case - its a USB DAC capable of 32/384 and
works VERY nicely with a Pi3 or Pi4.
This is mine.

Very high WAF indeed. Does the Khadas board need a separate power supply
or is it solely powered via the USB connection? (Never used a USB DAC in
my life)

It operates in 2 modes but in both it is powered by USB
Operates as a USB Dac where both power and input is via USB
Absolutely bpa. No over-engineering here!
I've a latent interest in proper hi-fi but haven't owned any for many
years. I haven't the time, the space, the privacy any more - maybe one
day. I've allowed myself a little amp with digital inputs and some
bookshelf speakers and for now I'm just happy

That's good. There have been users who have mixed up bitrate (e.g.
320kbps) with sample rate (324.8kHz).
