But after a while, some clicks and pops became audible. Disconnected it all for a while, and when I reconnected, the problem was back again with this message on mpd.log: Aug 01 05:57 : output: "USB" [alsa] failed to play: No such device Aug 01 05:57 : output: closed plugin=alsa name="USB" This time, there's no EMI message in dmesg. Still have to try copying files from one usb flash to another.
