Dear Forum

At "my" club we have a squeezebox network running music at a number of
bars. There is a slimserver running the music - upgraded to the latest
available version, plus a number of the "original" slimdevices, one in
each bar. All  slimdevices are upgraded to firmware version 130.
We maintain seperate playlists for each unit, so there is no sync going
on between any of the devices.

We need to power of the bars at night, and as such we turn off the
power for the slimdevices - while the server will remain on as it is
located in the always on server room.

All of this is working very well, except for one problem.. 
When connecting a slimdevice, while there is no playlist running, will
easily connect to the server, and when a playlist is selected the music
will start to play, just as one would expect. Problem however is, that
while the slimdevice is turned off this playlist keeps playing, and
when we turn back on the slimdevice the next day upon opening the bar,
the slimdevice will find the server, and display the song currently
playing in the playlist, but playback never starts.. The slimdevice
will display the song in the playlist, and appear to be at the very
start of the song, but not start to play it, while the son actually
plays on the server.. The remedy is to pause the playlist, select the
next song in the list and press play, then the audio will start again..
This is however not an ideal solution, as we would very much like to
have the slimdevices play music without user interaction. I've tried
changing the settings for how the slimdevice behaves when the power is
off, but this seems to only have effect if you from the slimserver
select to turn off the slimdevice, and not when the device is turned
off by manually switching the power.. 

I've been trying to find a thread about this in this forum without much
success and now hope for some wise person to come to my rescue.. 

I thank you in advance
