Does this thread sound like the issue you are having?

Tracks don't start playing from Tidal without pressing pause and play (Chromecast Audio)

Hi everyone! I tested activating DSP and Sample Rate Conversion for 44.1 kHz 16 bit that doesn´t work. Set it to Max PCM rate (power of 2) and it will give you a 88,2 kHz 24 Bit signal instead. Problem is gone! So for know activating this function to all your CCA will let you enjoy music without interupt. One small thing is that you should have your device setup and MQA Capabilities set to “Renderer Only”. Otherwise it well resample MQA also. Regards Jonas

Yes, seems to be the same issue. If I understood correctly, it’s not fixed but there’s a workaround Jonas Söderlund provided.

Edit: I tried setting Max PCM rate (power of 2), but then there’s no sound at all…?

Hi @Simo_Annala ,

Have you tried to reboot your Core/Chromecast after making that change?
Are you able to configure a custom 88.2 resample rate in Roon’s DSP menu?

[Simo_Annala]

Restarting Core/Chromecast didn’t help after setting Max PCM rate.

Set Custom 88.2 resample rate like this? The result is the same, only some intermittent clicks come out.
