Spotify playback seems to suffer from buffering issues #41

Hi.

I'm using volumio 2.041 on a rPi2 with Hifiberry DAC+ and rPi0 with pHAT DAC. Both installs have issues with playing spotify.

The rPi2 can play Spotify with sound but is suffering from buffering issues so it seems (100/100Mbit Ethernet connection on a 100/100 Viber internet connection). Streaming from Synology NAS and WebRadio works flawless. The rPi0 can play Spotify but without any sounds (unable to hear buffer-underruns...) and the playlist is not emptied when I choose a song from my NAS to be played opting for 'Clear and Play' when a spotify song was playing (reboot resolves this). Streaming from Synology NAS and WebRadio work flawless.

What can/should I do?

regards,

Ruud

Hello, I'am experiencing quite the same issue since few days. Playing Spotify was perfect but now sound is choppy. I have made a fresh Volumio 2 installation on a new SDcard but the issue is still here. Playing Spotify from my Smartphone through Volumio Spotify Connect is working fine. So it does not seem to be a hardware issue. Playing from NAS or Webradios is ok. Any idea ?
