Choking on .wav and .flac files

My Play:One system chokes on all .wav and .flac files (16bit).  Audio is clipped and sporadic with lots of skipping and pausing.  .mp3 files play fine, but not these larger formats.

Library is fully indexed.  The files are stored on a late model LaCie 2T volume connected via USB-C.  

The files play the same way whether controlled via the Mac app or the iPhone app.

Are the planned updates and fixes not complete?  is metadata causing the problems?  

Any similar experience out there?

 

Mac version 16.4.2

Build S2

Play:One

Mac 16” MBP

Sonoma 14.7

With the new updated app, some older speakers are having a hard time functioning properly while on WIFI. Try connecting the Play 1 to your router with an ethernet cable to see if that solves your issue.

Thanks for the response. Connected by ETHERNET, 16-bit FLAC and WAV work fine.  Of course, the 16bit limit still applies over ETHERNET.  For my larger 96/24 recording demos, I have to downsample….

Thanks for the reply.

Best,
