I've been able to narrow down the problem of no sound/distorted sound after a paused playlist is left overnight. Here is how I can reproduce; - Start playing a spotify playlist (using Triode's plugin). - Pause the song - Leave everything for approx 8 hours (leaving all squeezelite clients running and powered on). - Attempt to unpause the playlist - No sound out of squeezelite for about 5-10 seconds after unpausing, then followed by whitenoise. - If the squeezelite clients are powered off/on around 3 times then audio commences as it should after playlist started again.
Below shows what I think are the important sections from a all=debug trace: 21:33:52: SqueezeLite instance starts up 22:03:30: Spotify playlist started 22:03:42: Squeezelite playlist paused 07:58:33 (following day): Squeezelite playlist unpaused (about 5 secs of silense followed by white noise etc) Interestingly to me is that after an unpause the output buffer is immediately flushed (07:58:33). Could squeezelite perhaps be changed to unload alsa after a period of inactivity (say 2 hours), and then to load it again when requested - even if this added a few seconds to the start up, it would be preferable to the kids screaming of whitenoise at top volume in the lounge ;-) If I pause the playlist, then instead of leaving the squeezelite clients powered on, I power them off (through squeeze commander), then the following morning, I power them back on (again through squeeze commander), and then resume, everything works perfectly. I've checked the power_save mode on the sound card module and it's disabled along with all other powersavings inside the Debian Wheezy VM under VMware workstaion under Windows 7, so I don't believe the issue is power saving related. Any ideas? Thanks again - the combination of Triode's squeezelite+Spotify plugin is an unbeatable combination!
