USB input

[AllenB]

Yes, USB INIT is on as per default. What do you have streaming to your Pi?

I have my music on a NAS and rune audio pulls it from there. It's a Pi2 if that matters. I can turn my devialet on and off, swap inputs and never have to reboot the Pi. I get the same when I use volumino. It would drive me crazy if I had to reboot all the time.

I was wondering how you had Roon working through your Pi, and then you mentioned Volumio which presumably sets itself up as a music player on the Pi and, therefore is picked up by Roon. Roon will be releasing an image for Pi (and other slim devices I believe) when they release RoonBridge into the wild, but until then I have been using the HQP integration with Roon that plays via the HQP NAA on the Pi.

But my issue is with HQP's little network daemon NAA, which is not clever enough to know when the USB connection is alive or not. OK if the service starts with the USB connection live, but when that is changed (Dev sleeping or input switched) the NAA drops the connection, and you have to reboot it each time. Really not good in my book, but Jussi at HQP seems to ignore the issue, because it is not the way he uses his system, his whole system is either on or off, and you have to go through a certain sequence. What a phaff!

I suspect this is the same with other Linux based slim devices such as Cubox, SoSE when used with Dev's. It's probably a USB bus characteristic of Linux, but really, really annoying when all you want is to listen to music. I can deal with the reboots, but I can't expect other members of the family to cope with it.
