The problem

I'm playing a 5 hour long spotify playlist (Rock Rotation). After a while (in the logs below after around 1 hour) the music just stops.
I can start another playlist or the same one right away and music is playing again.

How to reproduce

Since the time it takes to time out varies, it's hard to give clear steps on how to reproduce this.

Music Providers

Spotify, I currently don't have other music providers available

Player Providers

Snapcast on a Raspberry Pi with a Hifiberry Hat

Full log output

music-assistant.log
Not sure how many times it is in the logs, but around 16:33:12 was when it stopped playing music.

Additional information

Playback is being instigated via service call from HA that has a playlist URI in it ("spotify://playlist/37i9dQZF1DWZJhOVGWqUKF"). Selecting a playlist manually via the UI usually results in the same problem.

What version of Home Assistant Core are your running

2024.11.3

What type of installation are you running?

Home Assistant OS

On what type of hardware are you running?

Generic x86-64 (e.g. Intel NUC)

The issue template says this

Please do NOT use debug logging unless asked to do so.

and you have used verbose which is worse? Having verbose on can cause timing issues.

Well, I was trying to debug a problem - usually more information is better than less. I can deactivate it and see if it helps.

My Spotify playlists also stop after a while; usually less then 30 minutes. This is what I see in the logs before my streams end. Any solutions?

I have the same problem and get the exactly the same warning in debug log.
After the Song "Mariah Carey - All I Want for Christmas Is You" the playback stopped although more songs are queued on the player.

These seem to be client problems as two of the reporters are using Snapcast and the log indicates a client disconnection. Thoughts @SantiagoSotoC

[OzGav]

In the meantime reporters using Spotify please add radiobrowser if you don’t have any other music providers and find a radio station you like and start streaming that and see if you have any issues.

I had not seen that error before.
I'm going to have to find another way to send the audio to the snapserver, ffmpeg is not intended as a player. And it's used that way, plus it doesn't support snapcast's 24 bit format.
Having a client disconnect shouldn't cause a problem. The audio is not sent to each client, but a stream received by the snapserver.
