Hi @Anthony_Saracino,

I took a look at our internal tracker today and I can see that this ticket is still under active investigation by the dev team. As soon as we have any additional information to share I will be sure to let you know.

Thanks,
Noris

Hi @noris and everyone else, Iā€™ve been having this exact issue for some time now and had come to the conclusion it must be something Iā€™d done (and didnā€™t know how to undo) because what sort of business would allow product out the door that does this to your kit?

Having found this thread Iā€™m at least reassured Iā€™m not quite the idiot I suspected I was. But then Iā€™m frustrated to see the thread kicked off in December and in mid February we still donā€™t have an answer, never mind a fix.

So, 3 days after you last checked @noris, how are things looking on the internal tracker today, please?

Iā€™ve put back up my old system - a Squeezebox Touch to the digital in on my MuSo. Itā€™s now being managed through the squeezebox ecosystem. I couldnā€™t live with the ā€˜surpriseā€™ of full volume from time to time, indeed looking forward to a fix, taking advantage of Roonā€¦

Also getting this with a Muso-QB (but not Uniti).

When Iā€™m sat next to do it I turn the volume down manually before the music comes on. When Iā€™m in a different room initially I donā€™t get that chance and BOOM - very loud! I hope itā€™s not damaging the Muso when this happens.

Would definitely like this fixing ASAP.

Hi @Andrew_Storey/@Ulrik_Willumsgaard/@Rob_Kirkbride,

Thank you for your continued interest in this issue. We are still investigating this issue with the dev team but unfortunately I am unable to provide an exact timeline of when a fix will be published. All I can say is that the dev team is working on it and I will keep this thread up to date as new information surfaces and work towards a fix begins.

While this investigation occurs on our end, does @johnā€™s post from above help mitigate the issue?

Thanks,
Noris

Hi @noris,

Thanks for the update, what a pity this is taking so long to get fixed. Re Johnā€™s suggestion, itā€™s inconvenient and a ā€œwork aroundā€ so never ideal, but it offers temporary protection until the correct and permanent fix is made available.

Yours, patiently waitingā€¦

Andy.

I also have this issue with my 2 Musoā€™s . The problem with the work around above is that one of Musoā€™s is also used with my Living Room TV and that has to be at around 90% to work at an acceptable volume level . Multi room is also very unreliable since the AirPlay patch was issued , so much so that I tend to go back to the Naim app for MultiRoom which would not be my choice. Iā€™was surprised that AirPlay 2 was not included in the 1.6 release ?

I can reproduce this faulty behavior on my two Muso QBs. I would love to get an update when things improve. Thanks!

I am also getting an unexpected jump to 100%

Me too on 3 Muso QBā€™s

Iā€™ve resorted to using LMS-To-UPNP for these devices

@support is there any update on this issue for Airplay clients such as the Naim Muso and Qbā€™s mentioned here?

I have a Naim Muso using Airplay. Been used for over 18 months with Roon with no issues.
Since the latest major Roon upgrade (I have the latest version), sometimes when i start Roon playing (my clicking the play icon) the Muso (and Roon) starts playing at 100% volume. The issue is intermittent. Happens maybe 2/10 times.

Same problem here.

This is being investigated by Roon. See this long existing thread:

Same issue here. Mu-so and Mu-so Qb all jump to 100% volume. I have set Roon volume limits at 30, but this is ignored.

Many thanks!

The workaround mentioned earlier in the thread was to set the maximum volume in the Naim appā€”not in Roon. You may find that helps while awaiting a fix from Roon and/or Naim.

Thanks Stephen - Will Do!

Given the potential damage to equipment and oneā€™s hearing, especially in our litigious society, I would have expected a quicker fix to this. Itā€™s been at least 3 months. Is there any update here?
