I applied Ralphy's patch to LMS 7.9 on my VB 2.3 system; I presume it
would be similar with LMS 7.8 on VB 2.3.

Here are the instructions for your VBA:

1. Login to your VortexBox.

2. Save the official version of ProtocolHandler.pm, and patch it:

Code:
--------------------
    
  cd /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/Slim/Plugin/Sirius/
  cp -a ProtocolHandler.pm ProtocolHandler.pm.official
  cd /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl
  patch -p1 < /storage/backup/lms-7.8-sirius-not-auth.patch
  
--------------------


3. Restart LMS:

Code:
--------------------
    systemctl restart squeezeboxserver
--------------------
