Same issue seen with Spotify. Usually is after 2 tracks for me, so thought is related to the prior 1-track issue with chromecast devices. B86
Has been reproduced and is being looked at
I'm not sure if this was intentional work on the issue or by chance in addressing another issue, but it appears thus far that this has been resolved in 2.0.0b87.
To clarify, this is without the new Queue Flow Mode or Crossfade enabled, which is now disabled on GHome/Chromecast devices in lieu of the new Flow Mode. (I'll put Queue Flow Mode through its paces later...)
I started testing about 30 minutes on a single speaker. No errors and no halt of playback. Now, I've got 6 speakers that I'm playing independent queues on simultaneously. So far, all is well. I'll report back later today if it pops up, but I think the bug is squashed.
Now it isn't playing through a full song before skipping to the next. Some songs will play entirely, some for minutes but not until the end, some get 15-30 seconds in and then just skip to the next in queue. Currently testing with a 6-speaker group and it just randomly does it.
Nothing noteworthy in the logs. Streaming from YT Music. Not sure how much MA caches of my tracks, but I'm playing the same queue on repeat.
This could be a different issue and maybe already reported, but it only started for me in b87 after the original issue of stopping playback was no longer an issue.
I decided to give Queue Flow Mode a try and it seems to have the same issue where it will randomly stop playing in the middle of a track and skip to the next. That said, it seems to happen less frequently with QFM on than if its turned off. In the log it appears to restart the QFM task:

Perhaps music_assistant.streams is crashing, but nothing shows in the logs as to what might be causing it.
With debug on and casting to a group, individual participating speakers report UNKNOWN status, but this may be unrelated:

Buffering is not a product of network conditions, as I can pull 50Mbit across a 1x1 MIMO iperf test with less than 2ms jitter and 400Mbit on a 2x2. CPU and memory in the add-on are negligibly low. Besides, a buffer underrun on the network shouldn't cause a full track skip, anyway.
Beginning testing of b88
This should be fixed in beta88
It appears to be so far, but I've only had a few hours to test and only with QFM disabled so far. Can't continue testing until my other issue with TTS is addressed, so I have no further input to provide.
Will check on 88, but testing on 87 seemed to have also corrected the issue.
What version of Music Assistant has the issue?
2024.1.0
The problem
When casting to a Google Home speaker or GHome Group, without crossfade on, playback will stop between tracks randomly. Sometimes after just one track, sometimes it will play for an hour and then just stop.
