As described a couple posts above, SLX now terminates the squeezelite process on Sleep and then restarts it on Wake. Underneath the covers, squeezelite-win.exe runs as a separate process and on wake (prior to this change) squeezelite-win.exe might wake up before or after SLX itself. Also, squeezelite can take its sweet time reconnecting to the server (often around 20-30 seconds). This caused a couple issues. One, In the material skin, you might be looking at a scary "looking for players" screen for 20-30 seconds, or a different player will be selected in the interface. Two, upon wake the SLX taskbar icon would blink orange after Wake. This change allows me to control and know the order that application will wake up, get squeezelite-win.exe to connect to the server faster and avoid the orange taskbar icon.
But there is side effect you may see. The squeezelite-win.exe process for some reason aborts itself if the computer is resumed unattended with no operator present. This can happen if your computer is woke externally via wake on lan, or, say, wakes up in the middle of the night to perform a backup or something. You may see a message "squeezelite aborted. Check Parameters" message. You'll have to press the apply button. Everything is fine if you wake the computer with a user action like pressing a key or moving the mouse or something like that. I'm not exactly sure why this happens and how to resolve it yet, but I am working on it.
