Unable to open an audio file for playback - New Issue

From what I see, this is not a new topic, but my issue seems to be a new angle on this one. Im getting “Unable to open and audio file for playback” seemingly at random from hi Rez files procured from the various sites. It doesn’t seem to be relative to any one type of file (Flac, Apple Losless etc.) or sample rate. It does seem to be centered around older downloads but can’t say for sure. Tidal works fine, however, I do have to sign on every so often when it drops from the Audirvana UI.

Older Mackbook Pro, running High Sierra 10.13.6. Just installed the latest Audirvana Update. Here is the Debug:

Another point I just discovered. If I go to the hard drive and select a song from the Music: HD Tracks: Tony Bennet: Love Is Here To Stay and then double click a song in that file, it opens up Audirvana and plays the file just fine. However if I go into the Audirvana app and attempt to play that file, I get the error condition “Unable to open…” as before. Any chance that I can re-install Audirvana?

Many mea culpas. Like another poster, the drive mapping was wrong it seems. Not sure how it got that way, but my issue is solved.

me too, same issue in past few days. Damien, where are you???
