I've recently updated to the latest version of Dietpi and have had some issues with getting LMS running alongside Squeezelite on a RPI 3b where I have a HiFiBerry DAC+. I thought something went wrong with the installation so I created a new image from scratch but although LMS is running find, squeezelite is showing as inactive under the dietpi-services.
I have been trying to activate it but without any luck unfortunately.
Anyone has any idea what I could try?
many thanks in advance for your help.

By the way, the squeezelite I have installed on a raspberry pi zero (so another install) is not outputting any music from the server and this stopped working since I updated to the latest version of DietPi so I wonder of something happened on the latest recent releases.
root@DietPi-livingroom:~# /usr/bin/squeezelite
[08:47:45.387926] test_open:281 playback open error: No such file or directory
[08:47:45.388070] output_init_common:382 unable to open output device
Pls can you have a look to dietpi-config if audio device is correctly setup? May you can have it deactivate, reboot, activate it again and do one more reboot.
Pls let us know if a solution is working. This could help others if they hit by similar situation. Your DietPi Team
Ok all good. In the end what was wrong in my end was that I had the wrong sound card selected. Bit confusing was that I have a dac+ from hifiberry but had to select hifiberry-dac in the options selected.
In any case many many thanks for your help that's been much appreciated.
