After a recent firmware update, something strange happened to the WiiM Pro when using it as an squeezelite. The sound output level is much lower when streaming music from the LMS than when playing the same albums directly from the WiiM app. Do you also have this?

Are you using replaygain in LMS?

I don't use. Now I found the same problem on the recently updated WiiM ultra.

Check the replay gain setting under the three dot menu under home music share in the WiiM app to see if it’s a side effect of that.

Thank you for trying to solve the problem. But first I have in “home music share” replay gain disabled. Secondly, it seems to me that it does not apply to using Lyrion as a server.
I'm very worried about this, as LMS has been the primary use of all my WiiM boxes until now.
