Bump. This is really frustrating and seems to be getting worse, today I can’t get plexamp to actually play at all and have been forced to listen to music in the plex webapp instead which is a much worse experience. What is going on here? Does plex just not care about plexamp anymore?
Dupes of this thread also with no attention:
Player Version#: Plexamp 4.12.4 (linux)
Hello, I recently switched from Windows to archlinux. Installed plexamp using yay (i have the same issue with both plexamp-appimage and plexamp-bin) and whenever i try to play a song, it just immediately stops. Not really sure what’s causing this, if i launch plexamp through Konsole there’s no error. I can use the flatpak version, but it has a different issue where when i start a song it doesn’t play for a bit (it goes from 0 to 1 to 0 to 1 etc second) un…
Ditto, still having this same issue.

I’ve started experiencing a weird issue with the Plexamp flatpak on Linux someti… me after upgrading to 4.12.4. Basically when I launch the app and first try to play a song, there’s no audio output and the playback seekbar will keep skipping backwards/forwards by 1 second.
The only way I can fix this is to go into the settings and change the audio device and then back to Pulseaudio, but I have to do this every time I open the app. I’ve had this happen on two different Linux desktops, one Debian 12 and the other Debian 13. No other applications besides Plexamp have any issues like this. I cleared out its data folder under `~/.var`, and that fixed it exactly one time, but then after closing/reopening the app it starts doing it again.
As soon as I downgrade to 4.12.3 the issue goes away. I can also reproduce it with the 4.12.4 appimage.
