Yes, I meant ufw, sorry. I can't see a way to tell what port will be
opened because the protocol says that you have to open the UDP ports,
tell the player what they are and then wait for packets. 

For volume, testing, maybe you could just unplug the speakers and see
what the amp says? 

The bridge never stops trying to detect players, they never get "burnt",
that's why I'm surprised. Or it might mean some bug or a problem in the
upnp library. Every X (30) s, there is a new discovery being launched
and it starts w/o knowing anything from the past. Discovered players are
then either already here and there "presence" is refreshed or they are
new and they are added. There is no penalty box
