In previous PRs, we made sure the internal HEOS queue gets cleared when starting a new stream from MA.
It seems in some cases, the
get_queuecommand takes longer to respond than the default 15 seconds timeout.Catching this exception, skipping the queue clearing and continuing to send a new stream to the device, makes sure the devices still are able to play.
I do not know yet how the devices get into this bad state where
get_queuecommands are delayed. But I had it happen on 1 of my devices, where I tested this fix with.Additionally, I've added a timeout configuration to the provider. This could reduce these errors if they occur very often. When running a full HEOS network wirelessly, it might increase response times on all commands, allow to tweak this can help reduce these issues.
I also fixed the config entry for the manually configured IP, as it wasn't showing up anymore.
