I suspect the problems may run deeper.
When Tim started porting moOde to Bookworm, I played with the new networking managment (cleverly known as NetworkManager) and thought that static addressing in moOde was working correctly. Tim's ETA just now to post /etc/resolv.conf made me look and I discovered I wasn't paying attention.
Background - my ISP is Comcast and I'm running a Comcast-provided cable modem/router/access point. Comcast supports both IPv4 and IPv6 (at least it does in my location in Maryland).
Yes, I just configured the moOde WiFi connection to a static IPv4 address, IPv4 gateway address, and external IPv4 DNS addresses (Cloudflare and Google) and rebooted. Everything seemed to be working fine. Radio stations play. The IPv4 addresses are all shown properly in the nmconnection file and in the moode information outputs.
However, look at the last stanza of your nmconnection file (which reads the same as mine)
This means our players will still get DHCP-assigned IPv6 addresses (if your router provides them, as mine does).
So, my moOde WiFi interface is running on the IPv4 address I assigned and also the IPv6 address my router assigned. More importantly, the /etc/resolv.conf file shows *only* the IPv6 addresses of the Comcast DNS servers irrespective of my choice of static or DHCP addressing.
