HomePod Mini audio does not play

[altserg]

Hi,

I'm trying to get HomePod Mini to work, but there is an authentication error, refer to the log below.
Command lines tried:
./cliraop-linux-aarch64 -debug 10 -volume 50 -alac 192.168.2.147 t.wav
./cliraop-linux-aarch64 -debug 10 -volume 50 192.168.2.147 t.wav
raop_play also fails with .mp3 and .wav files, see 2nd log

I have fixed the issue on my side. It was not because of libraop, but my local network issue. Need to allow playback from local network in HomeKit app

It worked out for me as well. I had to disable ufw firewall for the ip address of the HomePod Mini
