janui wroteHi Nic,
nic wroteI've been a happy user of 0.5b for the past few weeks and really appreciate Janui's help getting my DAC working with the new image . I've run into a slight issue when casting , I get 'twiitering noises' type static . I have rebooted the PC used for casting , rebooted the PI and also done a gitpull . This issue happens with MP3 cast from my PC , WAVs now seen fine . Any ideas ?
This is a new one, need to do a bit of research first, will get back to you.

I can confirm this problem.
They sound indeed as random static tics.
The same problem I have when I use Volumio.
With RuneAudio 0.4 it works normal and there is no problem.
This problem occurs, when you use an external DAC connected to the USB interface and stream the music from the ETH connection.
From what I understand, is that the USB and ETH from the Pi share the same chip and give this kind of problems.
A sollution (not so nice) is to use the WiFi connection for streming or use a USB to ETH interface, then the little tics are gone.
Also when played from an USB device there is no problem.
Probibly RuneAudio 0.5 handles this different from 0.4?
I hope this info can help solving the problem.
Setup:
Rapsberry Pi 3B+ connected by ethernet to my network. (My Pi 3B has the same problem)
Soekris dam2012 DAC connected by an Amanero USB interface.
Music library on NAS in my ethernet network.
