Sonos disconnects when try to play media added after upgrade of PLEX to 1.24.4.5081

[carsten_buchholz_web_de]

Server Version#: 1.24.5.5173 (on Synology DS218+ with DSM 6.2)
Player Version#: Sonos S2 13.3
After Upgrade to PMS 1.24.4.5081 all added music media based on FLAC (MP3 is still fine) cannot be played anymore by the SONOS environment (S2 13.3). Playing via the Android PLEX app still works fine. Upgrading to the PMS version 1.24.5.5173 does not help either.

Any idea what has been broken here? Can I go back to the version 1.23.3.4707 which was working fine before?

Thanks and regards
Carsten

I suspect you’re encountering the issue discussed at SONOS not playing specific files

Do you have “Perform extensive media analysis during maintenance” (Settings > Scheduled Tasks) enabled for your server?

See SONOS not playing specific files - #40 by Volts for forcing deep analysis from the CLI.

I’m using the following query to identify tracks which haven’t been received deep analysis and pipe them to CLI, where 3 is the id of my music library.

SELECT metadata_item_id FROM media_items WHERE library_section_id = 3 AND bitrate IS NULL;

It is the same issue, but nevertheless it is still a bug in PLEX. The scan library files did before the proper processing and is not doing it anymore. This means the standard functionality is broken by an update and should be corrected again. We should not do additiona deep analysis scans via CLI to work around a bug.
