Hi, since my debian LMS works well with the Pluginplayer, (currently 1.2) but if some hours nothing is played and i put a title in the playlist it wont play the tune correct. The only sound thats coming out is the first note from the songs and would repeat like a machinegun.
I didnt find out why - its not a problem with a special Hardware (i checked it with another board, same board with different usb DACs and so on) Since i want wake up with "while my guitar gently weeps" and not just a machinegunlike 1.note of it i build this workaround. May someone had some similar issues.
