Sonos Port digital output 'not valid' after update

I am using the coax digital output from a Port to drive an Arcam SA30 Amp.  Everything worked with the amp detecting a 44.1khz input.   After the firmware update today, the amp says the input is ‘Not Valid’ and nothing plays.   The analogue output from the Port still works OK.   Is this a botched upgrade?

I'm still having issues with my digital output when streaming using the Port. It seemed to be fixed following the latest firmware update but the problem has reappeared.

The stream just stops within 30 secs or if I adjust the volume.

Streaming works fine if using the analog output though.

 

I can also use the digital output with the line-in as my source. So both my cd player/receiver and my turntable play correctly.

What did the technical support team say, when you contacted them?

I haven't contacted support yet because they're only available during business hours.

 

I was just posting in case anyone had similar experiences or had any ideas of what is happening.
