Server Version: 1.24.3.5033 (linux)
Player Version: 7.24 (iOS 12.4.6)
When trying to play anything (video, audio, photo) on iOS I get the error message: “Couldn’t retrieve the play queue for this item. Please try again later.” The server log reports Could not convert "type" ("audio") to the correct type. Players on other devices work fine. I’ve had this problem for quite a long time.
The relevant server logs when playing a music file:
