Unable to play MP3 files / constant crashes during audio playback

[hallansen 2]

I've actually had this problem sporadically for a while now, but it's so severe that nothing works anymore.

When I play any MP3 file and try to start the next one, the server crashes immediately and has to be restarted manually.

The dashboard shows that playback has started, and then the state seems to freeze, and the server doesn't register that playback has stopped.

My system details:
Emby Server version 4.9.3.0 on Shield TV Pro (Android software version 9.2.2)
Android Client version 3.5.28

I've tried it on a tablet and also directly on the Shield with the client.

I hope something can be seen in the log data.

What I've tried so far:

- Completely reset the Shield and reinstalled everything.
- Reinstalled the clients.
- Tried older server and client versions, without success.
- Took one attempt to play audio files from a USB stick plugged directly into the Shield to rule out access problems with the external storage.

Images and videos play without any problems.

When I use the web browser for audio playback, everything works fine.

And, importantly, I have the same server version installed on a Synology NAS, and everything works perfectly there, even with various clients.

This is unacceptable, especially since I only purchased the lifetime license at the beginning of the year.
