Troubleshooting

The installation and setup of Shairport Sync is straightforward on recent Linux distributions. Issues can occasionally arise caused by problems elsewhere in the system, typically WiFi reception and/or the WiFi adapter settings, the network, the router, firewall settings or some more esoteric audio interfaces.

In this brief document will be listed some problems and some solutions, some provided by other users.

  1. Before starting, ensure that your software is up-to-date. This document always refers to the most recent version of Shairport Sync -- see here for information about the most recent release.
  2. If you have set interpolation in the general section of the configuration file to to soxr, comment it out or set it to auto or basic as the soxr setting can cause lower-powered devices to bog down at critical times, e.g. see this report.

No/Low Sound

Let's say you've just installed or updated Shairport Sync and you are testing it for the first time after installing or updating. If you are using the default ALSA backend, don't forget to check two simple things:

  1. Check that the volume on the output device is turned up. If the output device has a "mixer" i.e. a volume control, Shairport Sync does not, by default, try to control it. Therefore, if it happens to be very low or even at zero, you might not hear audio that is actually coming through to the device. (You can get Shairport Sync to control a mixer -- see here for some hints.)
  2. Check that the output device is not muted. Some audio applications (including very old versions of Shairport Sync) leave the output device mixer in a muted state after use to minimise the possibility of noise. However, this is not generally compatible with other audio players using the same device, as they generally expect the device to be unmuted.

You can use alsamixer for both of these checks. A muted output has the letter(s) M as its value. Select it and type M again to unmute.

Sync is slightly off!

WiFi adapter running in power-saving / low-power mode

Check Throughput

You can check WiFi throughput using, for example, https://thepi.io/how-to-use-your-raspberry-pi-to-monitor-broadband-speed/

Problem

Shairport Sync is installed and running, but sometimes it disappears from the network, and sometimes it suffers from long dropouts.

Possible Cause

This can be caused by lots of things, but one of them is that the WiFi adapter may be set to run in a low-power or power-saving mode. If it's not busy, then after a while it goes into a low-power mode. This is bad as the device needs to be always connected to the network to provide the AirPlay service. You need to turn off power-saving mode. How you do this varies with platform and with WiFi adapter – internet search is your friend. Here, for instance, is the command for the C.H.I.P. from Next Thing Co, which has built in WiFi and Linux and has the iw command installed:

iw dev wlan0 set power_save off

Here is the command sequence for a Raspberry Pi 3, which has built-in WiFi:

sudo iwconfig wlan0 power off

Alternatively, (also for the Raspberry Pi), add the following line:

wireless-power off

to the file /etc/network/interfaces.

Here is another option, suggested by davidhq in #653:

$ sudo nano /etc/network/if-up.d/off-power-manager

Type:

#!/bin/sh
/sbin/iwconfig wlan0 power off

Then:

sudo chmod +x /etc/network/if-up.d/off-power-manager

There are some more details in some the closed issues on this repository.

VPNs

To see the AirPlay service Shairport Sync provides, your devices must be on the same subnet as Shairport Sync. If, say, a device such as an iPhone is on a VPN and Shairport Sync is not, or vice-versa, then even though the devices might be physically on the same network, they are effectively on separate networks due to the VPN and the AirPlay service will not be accessible to the device. So, when you are troubleshooting, look out for VPN issues.

Faulty WiFi

For an example of what it can take to track down a bad WiFi situation – in this case, a faulty WiFi adapter – please look at this report.

Using your iOS device as a hotspot.

An iOS device that is being used as a WiFi hotspot can not play audio to another device.

Can't play from iTunes on Windows

Problem

You can play from other devices but not from your Windows PC.

Possible Issue -- AirPlay 2 iTunes on Windows is not compatible with Shairport Sync when it is built for AirPlay 2. This is unlikely to change, unfortunately. However, iTunes on Windows remains compatible with "classical" Shairport Sync.

Possible Issue -- AirPlay The Windows Firewall is preventing access to Shairport Sync.

Solution: Allow network discovery. This setting creates a private type network and enables Windows to access the ports and protocols necessary to use Shairport Sync.

UFW firewall blocking ports (commonly includes Raspberry Pi)

Problem

You have installed Shairport Sync successfully, the daemon is running, you can see it from your remote terminal but you are unable to play a song.

Before you change anything to your configuration

  • Type the following command:

    sudo ufw disable

  • Try to launch a song from your remote device on the Shairport Sync one. If this works, proceed to the next step and follow the ones described below, in the solution section.

  • Enable UFW through the following command:

    sudo ufw enable

Solution

You have to allow connections to your Shairport Sync device from remote devices. To do so, after re-enabling UFW (see last step of the previous section), enter the following commands in shell:

Classic AirPlay:

sudo ufw allow 3689/tcp
sudo ufw allow 5353
sudo ufw allow 5000/tcp
sudo ufw allow 6000:6009/udp

AirPlay 2:

sudo ufw allow 319:320/udp
sudo ufw allow 3689/tcp
sudo ufw allow 5353
sudo ufw allow 5000/tcp
sudo ufw allow 7000/tcp
sudo ufw allow 6000:6009/udp
sudo ufw allow 32768:60999/udp
sudo ufw allow 32768:60999/tcp

The range 32768:60999 represents the ephemeral port range which seems to be standardised on those values.

You can check UFW config by typing sudo ufw status in shell. Please make sure that UFW is active, especially if you have deactivated it previously for testing purposes. Check out the ufw man pages for more.

Run your song from your remote device. Enjoy !

Shairport Sync Won't Start Automatically After Reboot

This refers to slower machines, such as the Raspberry Pi Zero or the original (single core) Raspberry Pi, running a recent Linux that uses systemd.

Problem

Having compiled Shairport Sync properly using the README guide, and having completed the make install step, and having enabled startup on reboot using $ sudo systemctl enable shairport-sync, Shairport Sync will start manually upon entering $sudo systemctl enable shairport-sync, but it will not start automatically after a reboot.

Possible Cause

On lower-powered machines, such as the Raspberry Pi Zero or the original (single core) Raspberry Pi, particularly with a USB sound card, it may be that the sound system is not ready when Shairport Sync is automatically started. The result is that Shairport Sync cannot see the device it needs and shuts down.

Possible Solution

A good solution is to delay the automatic startup of Shairport Sync by a few seconds using the systemd timer mechanism:

Create a file called shairport-sync.timer and place it alongside shairport-sync.service in /lib/systemd/system. The file should contain the following:

[Unit]
Description=Shairport Sync AirPlay receiver

[Timer]                       
OnBootSec=10s              
Unit=shairport-sync.service

[Install]    
WantedBy=multi-user.target

You need to disable the shairport-sync service because the timer is calling the service, and you need to enable the shairport-sync timer:

# systemctl disable shairport-sync
# systemctl start shairport-sync.timer
# systemctl enable shairport-sync.timer

See also #179, with thanks to @maumi and others.

Alternative Solution

  • Edit Shairport Sync service file sudo nano /lib/systemd/system/shairport-sync.service
  • Update the service section to include the line ExecStartPre=/bin/sleep 5

Example:

[Service]
ExecStartPre=/bin/sleep 5
ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/shairport-sync
User=pi
Group=pi

Stuttering audio on certain USB DACs (such as the Creative Soundblaster MP3+)

Problem When using a USB DAC on a Raspberry Pi audio plays fine through other methods (such as through mpd, mopidy, mplayer or aplay) but when streamed to Shairport Sync regular dropouts or stutters are heard.

Possible Cause There is a suspicion (although this is not 100% confirmed) that this is a fun latency/timing issue related to a combination of

  • The Raspberry Pi's ethernet itself being a USB device resulting in shared bandwidth/interrupts with USB DACs
  • Shairport Sync continually checking the latency of the USB DAC to maintain synchronisation of audio
  • Quirky USB DACs (already known to be problematic on the Raspberry Pi more info available here For more discussion on this issue see issue 167 or read on for the quick fix!

Possible Solution To get nice smooth audio first check the details of your USB DAC by either using 'aplay -l' which will give you output something like this:

**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: ALSA [bcm2835 ALSA], device 0: bcm2835 ALSA [bcm2835 ALSA]
  Subdevices: 8/8
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
  Subdevice #1: subdevice #1
  Subdevice #2: subdevice #2
  Subdevice #3: subdevice #3
  Subdevice #4: subdevice #4
  Subdevice #5: subdevice #5
  Subdevice #6: subdevice #6
  Subdevice #7: subdevice #7
card 0: ALSA [bcm2835 ALSA], device 1: bcm2835 ALSA [bcm2835 IEC958/HDMI]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 1: MP3 [Sound Blaster MP3+], device 0: USB Audio [USB Audio]
  Subdevices: 0/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0

or look at your existing '/etc/asound.conf' file, which may look something like this

pcm.!default {
    type hw
    card 1
}
ctl.!default {
    type hw
    card 1
}

The important information you want is the card number which in this case is 1.

Now modify your 'etc/asound.conf' file (or create one if it doesn't exist) using the following template substituting the 'pcm "hw:1"' and 'card 1' sections with the card number of your device

pcm.!default {
    type plug
    slave.pcm {
        type dmix
        ipc_key 1024
        slave {
            pcm "hw:1"
            rate 48000        # this line is only needed for USB DACs which only support 48khz
            period_time 0
            period_size 1920
            buffer_size 19200
        }
    }
}
ctl.!default {
    type hw
    card 1
}

This sets the default alsa audio device to be the USB DAC via a dmixer plugin (which can be used by multiple applications at once) using a modified period and buffer size and optionally mix to 48khz.

This will then be used by default by Shairport-Sync and any other applications using alsa.

Note that some distributions (such as Volumio 2) don't use an asound.conf file by default, they instead specify the hardware details directly in '/etc/mpd.conf' files so some more in-depth modification is needed to override this.

(Note: not tested by Mike B.)

Buffer underflow to audio backend

**Problem **

Audio may seem to pause or drop for several seconds. iOS devices may regularly disconnect altogether and display an error message. This may be caused by a combination of factors listed above such as slow WiFi or limited resources on the device running Shairport Sync.

**Possible Solution **

If none of the above steps completely remove the issue, try increasing the audio backend buffer setting in the backend section of shairport-sync.conf. (This section may vary depending on the value of the "output_backend" setting.)

For example:

audio_backend_buffer_desired_length = 19845;

...is triple the default for the ALSA backend and effectively solves the above issue with a Pi Zero on a busy network.

AAC Decoder Issues (AirPlay 2 only)

To play AirPlay 2 Buffered Audio streams, Shairport Sync needs an AAC decoder capable of decoding Planar Floating Point -- fltp -- AAC material. Unfortunately, not all systems have such a decoder. To troubleshoot this, the idea here is to use the ffmpeg app, which may already be installed in your system, to list AAC decoders and to check that the default AAC decoder has fplp capability. Here is an example of where the AAC decoder can decode fltp material. The system is a Raspberry Pi running 64-bit Raspberry Pi OS Lite 11 (Bullseye):

$ ffmpeg -decoders | grep -i aac

Here are the same commands, performed on a system which does not support fltp decoding:

Decoder libfdk_aac [Fraunhofer FDK AAC]:
    General capabilities: dr1 chconf 
    Threading capabilities: none
libfdk-aac decoder AVOptions:
  -conceal           <int>        .D..A...... Error concealment method (from 0 to 2) (default noise)
     spectral        0            .D..A...... Spectral muting
     noise           1            .D..A...... Noise Substitution
     energy          2            .D..A...... Energy Interpolation
  -drc_boost         <int>        .D..A...... Dynamic Range Control: boost, where [0] is none and [127] is max boost (from -1 to 127) (default -1)
  -drc_cut           <int>        .D..A...... Dynamic Range Control: attenuation factor, where [0] is none and [127] is max compression (from -1 to 127) (default -1)
  -drc_level         <int>        .D..A...... Dynamic Range Control: reference level, quantized to 0.25dB steps where [0] is 0dB and [127] is -31.75dB, -1 for auto, and -2 for disabled (from -2 to 127) (default -1)
  -drc_heavy         <int>        .D..A...... Dynamic Range Control: heavy compression, where [1] is on (RF mode) and [0] is off (from -1 to 1) (default -1)
  -level_limit       <boolean>    .D..A...... Signal level limiting (default auto)
  -drc_effect        <int>        .D..A...... Dynamic Range Control: effect type, where e.g. [0] is none and [6] is general (from -1 to 8) (default -1)

It does not indicate that it supports fltp decoding (and, indeed, it definitely does not support it). The decoder is based on fixed-point arithmetic, and will only accept 16-bit PCM input (presumably for encoding, not decoding, which is our focus), so this is not unexpected.
