Track fade out (Pause, Stop, Skip Track, Sleep, ...) and fade in when restarting

Please consider voting for this feature.
IMHO, this is a much need feature addition, which has the potential to address:

  1. Audible pops on track transitions (Executing transitions @ zero crosspoint)
    Particularly relating to play, stop, track skip and volume ramping. Overview here:
    a. Clicks/pops when skipping or pausing songs - #15 by john
    b. This issue is particularly noticeable on electronic or bass heavy music. My experience here: Latest Roon build | Random small popping sounds moving DSP volume, and when selecting play & pause functions - #47 by grizaudio

Reviewing the first link above, it appears a ticket was raised in 2019.
My assumption is this feature/issue is yet to be addressed due to significant work which would need to occur both by Roon and Roon endpoint partners.

  1. Introduce user selectable volume fade in/out | up/down for playback transitions
  2. Address DSP volume ramping noises for systems relying on Roon digital attenuation.

Please vote. Thanks
