sound – pulseaudio-dlna -flac – Ask Ubuntu

Running pulseaudio-dlna version 0.6.0 and Ubuntu version 22.04.1 LTS (64bit)

I’m unable to stream flac to a dlna device at higher than the default 16 bit 44.1 kHz. I’ve scoured the web for information and have:

Updated the ‘default-sample-format’ to s24le
Updated the ‘default-sample-rate’ to 96100

In my /etc/pulse/daemon.conf file.

Have run ‘debug on’ to glean info or error but nothing obvious. I’ve ensured the conf file is being read. I also run with the -flac argument and also set the high priority rule to be flac in the config so will goto that anyway in my configuration.

I’ve sampled the files I’m streaming using Strawberry which shows the resolution as expected, so the issue seems to be with pulseaudio-dlna or something I’m not configuring.

I’ve also been through the Python code which seems to be picking up the rules and reading the config correctly, at least from the code.

So, does anyone know where I’m going wrong or is this a known issue?

Thank you for your time.
