Quote:Usually when I unplug the power cable and reinsert
That is a hard reset and if you are doing that often then there is the possibility it will lead to corruption of the uSD card.
Depends on the quality and age/usage of the card of course.
Why do you not shutdown through the MoOde interface or from an ssh session ? If it is because MoOde is unreachable then you should be checking your network.
What device are you using for audio decoding.. a HAT or USB DAC ? Do these get powered before you power-up the Pi..?
