Trying to figure out where I went wrong. I have a two speaker multiroom setup and one speaker is called speaker1 and the other speaker2. (I know, very creative) I am using a Raspberry PI 5 for the sender and originally had both receivers using Raspberry Pi 3's. However, during troubleshooting, I have since replaced speaker2 with a Raspberry PI 4. All OS's have been fully updated. The speakers are cheap USB stereo speakers plugged into the Raspberry PIs.
The issue I am having is the second speaker set volume is fluctuating a LOT and is basically unusable. The speaker1 set seems to work flawlessly. Changing volume level, via touch display on PI5, works perfectly on speaker1 but not speaker2 continues to fluctuate wildly. Volume on speaker2 goes form what appears to be maxed to very quiet several times every few seconds.
Things tried
built the multiroom setup using this guide https://github.com/moode-player/moode/bl...tiroom.txt[url=https://github.com/moode-player/moode/blob/develop/www/setup_multiroom.txt][/url]
adjusted the individual speaker1 and speaker2 volumes in the gui and set them both to the same number (20) and later (30)
swapped speakers between the two receivers and problem stayed with speaker2
swapped usb cable on speaker two and issue remained same
swapped power supplied between the two receivers and problem stayed with speaker2
replaced raspberry PI 3 with 4 on speaker2 but problem remained - this also involved a complete OS reimage with PI imager
rebuilt both speaker1 and speaker2, using imager, and configured them identically with the exception of the name and problem remains with speaker2
I am forced to assume problem is most likely with sender but thought it just multicasts to 239.0.0.1 so there shouldn't be an issue with the actual audio stream. You can control the two speaker volumes from the sender but not sure why it would constantly be telling speaker2 to fluctuate.
