LMS not able to play MP3

[davem]

When you have time next, play LMS with Squeezelite with MP3, with PMS docker container stopped. 

Now run: sudo netstat -an

and see any of the ports you listed above is showing up as connected. LMS might be using some sort of network connections to get MP3 working, just need to find out what process that is ("sudo netstat -tulpn" to find the process opening the port).

If Snakeoil OS is complaining about missing netstat, run this to install: sudo apt install net-tools

I like puzzles like this. Easily get distracted trying to fix these puzzles.. Bad habit as that's taking away so much of my free time on the computer.

Just did that. None of the PMS ports were listed in the netstat output....also looked at the netstat -tulpn and could not see anything obviously audio related. Output attached for reference

I am glad you like puzzles because I am out of ideas...
[Edit: I *think* that it may be affecting snakeoil firmware upgrades as well. Its usually hit&miss for me whether an upgrade will work. After disabling plex, 1.2.13 went through ok]

Running any other containers? Say a DNS server of sorts? Or is PMS doing DNS service as well?

That could be the reason? Try stopping that and see what happens?

On my live system I am also running pihole in a container, so yes DNS. But on the test install that I did, no, just Plex server.

I am up to date now but will stop pihole next upgrade time.
