[SOLVED] Audio glitching on Pi 5

[TheOldPresbyope]

I think all talk about speed is chasing a red herring.

Case in point. On my Pi 5 with moOde 9.0.4 flashed to an old* class 4 uSD card it is working fine playing FLAC files from SDCARD through a Khadas USB Tone 1 DAC.

This is stock with no adjustments to config.txt or anything else.

I don't see mentioned what happens if an Internet radio station is played instead of a stored track. That would eliminate many of the possibilities that have been suggested.

There's something going on here which is external to moOde itself. So far, not enough data has been presented to diagnose the cause. Unfortunately, I don''t have any HDMI-gear to use to try to replicate the OPs system, so I'll set down and shut up now. ETA: My bad, I was thinking of another thread at the same time. Actually, my Khadas DAC has a similar but newer SABRE ESS9038 DAC chip.

Regards,
Kent


*How old, you ask? It still had a copy of moOde 2.6 on it. Took forever for the Rasberry Pi Imager to flash moOde 9.0.4 to it and verify the result.
