Description Of Issue

Ever since 1.8, I cannot play to my Ropieee/Yamaha AS-801 for more than a few minutes without the “lost control of the audio device” error. I read a post from 2018 saying that they had this issue when switching bitrates, but this will happen to me in the middle of any song.

I also have a Mac setup running Roon Bridge in my basement with a Pro-ject DAC and AudioEngine speakers as audio devices and those have been working perfectly fine.

Edit: if I unplug the USB cable from the back and then plug it back in, the Yamaha reappears. Sometimes it will disappear and reappear by itself

Hello @jamesd ,

If you try to plug in the Yamaha to the ROCK Core directly or to another PC running Roon, do you see the same issue occurring or only through Ropieee? Have you tried a different USB cable with the same result?

Thank you! A update to Ropieee seems to have fixed it.
