Playback of music gives micro-drop outs

When I play music on my Raspberry Pi 3 via either the music library or file list, playback exhibits random micro drop outs. This does not happen when playing videos. This was true in the previous release 7.x.x and in the new release 8.0.0. Anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this or is it a bug in Libreelec?
Thanks in advance for any replies.
