Some settings are not saved persistently

Hi,

Some months ago I set the audio output to PULSE/Bluetooth. I was testing something. As the results were not satisfying I switched back to HDMI. Now whenever I reboot the Raspberry, the wrong setting "PULSE" is restored.

Also after a reboot the audio replay mode is set to random even if before it was track order.

My system is LibreELEC 9.02 running on a Raspberry 2.

Any idea what might be wrong?

Bluetooth was already deactivated in openELEC settings. So this shouldn't be the problem.

Ok I tried that.

I edited guisettings.xml as you suggested and did a reboot, but again there was configured PULSE.

So I looked closer. I set audio output to HDMI. guisettings.xml was changed at 22:50.

I shut down the Pi at 23:00 and booted at 23:04. guisettings.xml was changed at 23:04, but still read <setting id="audiooutput.audiodevice">PI:Both</setting>. I then looked at the settings via GUI (Settings - System - Audio). Here "PULSE" was displayed.

I left the screen without changing anything. Now guisettings.xml was changed (23:08) and read <setting id="audiooutput.audiodevice">PI:Both</setting>

So the wrong setting is saved at yet another place and restored after boot while guisettings.xml still holds the correct value. Only after editing the settings guisettings.xml is adjusted. Do you (or anybody) know, where this "yet another place" might be?

I set audio to the desired value HDMI and switch on logging.

I do a restart.

After kodi is back, I go to settings and set audio to HDMI again.

I shut down the system.

That did it! Thank you!

(Can't remember having installed that thing, but there it was...)
