I installed today's download (8.3.7) on a fresh system, configured Airplay -> CamillaDSP (with a custom config file); and was having issues where Airplay would drop out.

I guess I'm using camillaDSP volume type. Not sure that was an intentional choice.
Anway, after replacing `mpd2cdspvolume` (file said version 0.3.1) with version 0.4.0 from github, the problem went away.
So, a couple questions,
- is this a known issue? Happy to report a github issue if that's a better way to report issues like this. I guess it's a temporary thing, since camilladsp 2.0.0 is in the 8.3.8 release.
- I'm new to Moode's (MPD) volume settings, is that mainly for physical controls? I should probably set fixed, for my use where mostly Airplay volume is enough control.
