It could be the streamer, they do it sometimes.
Reboot it or clear the data out if the app first before blaming the DAC.

Troubleshooting my Dac
Hi,
I’m looking for any thoughts on this problem I’m having. My system looks like this:
Stream with Node 2i or Sonos Port > Electrocompaniet ECD-1 Dac > VTL 2.5L > Odyssey Khartago > Kef r11s
All of my gear is powered on via programmable outlet > Panamax Max 5100 > audio gear.
Here’s the problem which seems to be occurring more often. When I get home from work, everything is on and ready. I open my blueOS app, chose Qobuz and grab a playlist. Input 3 on the Dac. The app, indicates the music is playing, but no sound. Try Sonos, (input 4) switch input on the Dac. Sonos app says music is playing, but no sound. Sometimes, toggling through the 4 inputs on the Dac will fix the problem. I can hear a relay operate for each input. Last night I heard a loud snap when I reached input 3, like a static shock, amplified through the speakers when I toggled the inputs and then the music began playing.
Tonight, a little different. Apps again indicate music is playing, but no sound. Toggle through the Dac inputs. Nothing. Power cycle the Dac. Boom, we have music.
Could there be an input related relay that’s going bad?
Any other thoughts?
Thank you!
Jeff
