Description Of Issue
Stereo connected to core machine works great. When Roon is connected to Apple airplay songs frequently skip (slight pause) in the middle of the song. This can happen 2 or 3 times in one song. This happens when playing music on any of the Apple airplay devices, whether grouped or on their own.
I started my Roon service just prior to the release of v1.7. I believe airplay was working fine before the update. I am not using any DSP settings. Core computer does not appear to be over taxed.
