...This presumably means you are using a different (later?) version of the Sonos firmware. This difference is likely to be significant.

As in OP, I'm using old Sonos units, which I’ve used for years. I was forced to abandon the Sonos Streaming approach when I got a New QNAP last year as the new one required a security level the older Sonos streamer could not handle. But it was working just fine with a massively older/slower QNAP NAS. I always knew about the ridiculous 10k track limit of the Sonos system, even when updated, so it was a good time to explore an alternative way of listening to my NAS music without such a limit - which had been working until a few weeks ago.
I can't update the old Sonos Units unless I also throw away & replace 4 NexusII control tablets, which I'm sure you understand is not attractive financially.
For info, I'm doing all these tests using Bubble on my reasonably new Samsung phone, but older versions of Bubble do work on the Nexus II units.

The PLAY1s that simbun is using (thanks for the debug log) will be on the update, and the fact that the target unit is different would almost certainly be the case anyway.

I do wonder about the too-fast speed diagnosis. The error that the Sonos throws, as in earlier post, is a complaint that it isn't receiving the stream FAST enough, not that it is too fast for it to handle. If Minim is doing its job correctly, is it Bubble that is throttling ? Might there be a Bubble setting that I should be tweaking to keep the stream across fast enough for them ?

I'll try to achieve the flowControl=2 or 3x tomorrow.
