    OK I think I can confirm I also experience some random problem as you described.. I wasn't sure and when tested few times during day it seem to work. But now I had 2 alarms within 30min ..1st went off ok and 2nd one stopped first one, changed alarm on display but no audio at all. Just silence.

      I think that has been a "feature" for a long time, well before 8.3 [emoji2]

        Same problem overhere.. but with a twist..
        I wanted to change the windows server for a docker container.
        In the windows settings and server version all works as intended and alarm functions.
        When i replaced the windows server for the synology docker container the alarm stopped working.
        Same nightly versions!
        Going back to windows solved the problem, but of course thats not the intention.
        So is there a difference between the two codes that can explain this behavior?

          Ohh lol.. Wasn't aware of that. Well, in this case I'm back to " not so sure" position. Maybe I've not experienced Michael's alarm problem ;p

            This is really weird. I'm not even on v8.3 (but 8.2.0 - 1627922070) and my alarm has also started failing on my Squeezebox Boom, where it has been working reliably for years. I wouldn't say it fails randomly, rather it works randomly. During my about 15 (or so) tries this morning, three worked and in the other 12 (or so) failed. By failed I mean that the song is "loaded" (cover art shows up in the webUI) but it never starts playing. If I manually click play on that song, it starts playing no problem.

            Just did another test and here is the log:

            At 16:36:00.4320 it says: "_alarmEnd called with request: stop" Where might that be coming from?

            Notice also 16:36:00.0358 where it says that the previous alarm wasn't triggered.

            The warning at 16:36:04.1118 also occurs when the alarm triggers correctly, so I assume we can ignore that.

              After restarting the virtual machine (Ubuntu 18.04) on which LMS is running, I can't seem to reproduce the issue anymore. I assume that you guys have already tried restarting and it didn't go away? So I expect the issue to return... We'll see.

              One thing I can say from the logs of the successful tries is that when I stop the alarm manually (on the web-ui), then it says `Slim::Utils::Alarm::_alarmEnd (1970) _alarmEnd called with request: pause` instead of `stop` at the end.

                Alarm not working with 8.3?

                Hehe... I should never have started this thread :-).

                Similar experience here: I posted here because I experienced exactly
                what you describe. The track would seemingly be started, but actual
                playback wouldn't happen.

                And then I had to indeed restart my LMS system, too - and haven't had a
                single failure since (which is a week).

                  Ahhhh... I was just going to report no failures in the last 4 days of testing, but I also restarted my 8.3 server after updating the plugins on the morning of the 11th.

                  Just as another reference point, I'll leave that SB Radio on my 8.3 setup with 2 alarms a day configured, see if the issue comes back.

                  I see this as well, I thought it might be because my players are set to pause at power off in player audio settings

                    Oh no, it was good you did. It's important to have this place where people find that they have the same problem.

                    And unless we find what caused this strange issue, we have to expect it to reoccur...

                    Not sure whether I prefer it to reoccur (because then we can figure it out) or it to be a once in a lifetime failure (in which case we'll never know for sure)... Luckily my preference doesn't matter at all.

                      starting and restarting the dockerized LMS does not solve the problem.
                      The windows install works without a hitch.
                      Very strange..
                      Are there ports involved with the alamr? Maybe thats something to test in dockerized apps.

                        So what kindof stuff can fix itself by rebooting on "normal" machines but not in docker containers?

                        I have no idea but my first guess would be that it has something to do with environment variables (in docker). Like the timezone or something, which might be set statically in a container or "mirrored" into the container from the host. If the timezone becomes corrupted on the host, the container also gets it wrong and restarting the container should not change that.

                        Have you tried restating the whole machine?

                          Yes, tried all kind of things.. docker container as host ( same ipnumber and all ports ( as far as i know) and as bridged network.
                          Tried older Logitech versions in docker ( the advantage to run several LMS sessions with a simple restart)

                          None of them seems to safely run the alarm.

                          Interesting.. when i set an alarm under the windows version and switch of the server the radio just uses its standard musictune but still works.
                          If i do the same under linux the radio does not start the alarm on the set time.
                          I can see the alamrs in the interface of the radios though, they are there but do not work.. very strange.

                          I see differences in Perl versions between windows and Linux ( see posting above with details)
                          So it seems Windows version is working better then the Linux version.. what can be the main cause of this?

                            Unfortunately I've also experienced a failed alarm this morning - running 8.3.0 - 1661147463 on a pi4. The stream didn't start as fas as I could see.
                            Also, 2 days ago - did modify some alarms (did set up 4 different for the same radio) directly from the server interface but player didn't get updated. Had to restart the Radio.

                              Again today, no alarm on 1 radio out of 3. And no fallback. Will restart my set up. If still an issue by end of week, will revert back to 8.2

                                Alarm not working with 8.3?

                                When I started this thread I was definitely seeing an issue. I then did
                                as you suggest: restart the LMS machine. And I haven't had a hiccup since...
