Audio fades to zero after 20 seconds of videoplayback

  • I am running LibreElec 8.0.2 on PI 2 connected to a TV via HDMI.

    When playing videos through AddOns in Kodi, the audio and video play fine but the the audio begins to stutter after about 20 seconds and then fades completely, but the video continues. This happens with all videos from all addon sources. Yet it is a recent occurrence.

    The output device is set at: PI: HDMI, number of channels is: 2.0.

    When play videos with Kodi on PCs with Windows 10 or Linux Mint 18.3, audio performs perfectly.

    Perhaps somebody can help.
