WiiM Amp playing a ringing sound like an alarm after a while

[WiiM Support]

Hi Team,

Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention. Our engineers are currently working on it. It appears to be a bug introduced when we recently added the fallback alarm feature, which activates when the music alarm source is unavailable (e.g., during an Internet outage).

If it turns out to be related to overlapping alarms this would explain why that bug never bit me.

Yeah, since I’m retired, I don’t even know what an alarm is

I just upgraded to firmware version 5.0.639034. Does this version have a fix? Just asking because whatever version it was that I was running this morning was still chiming despite my configuring the alarms to be non-contiguous (i.e., one alarm at 0730 for 4:25 duration, and a second alarm at 1200 for 5:00 duration).

This update includes the following bug fixes.

[Alarm Behavior Update: Fixed an issue where alarms didn’t stop after their duration if the selected music was unavailable.]

However, I don't think this bug has anything to do with setting continuous 2 alarms. Please try setting an alarm to start after 2 minutes and see if the problem is fixed.

You might be the first to get the update. No sign of it for me yet.
