Known Issues:
- On Klimax DSM, using Balanced input with Digital Features OFF there is a mismatch between left and right volume levels, which will be affected by adjusting L/R balance.
- Net Aux has been reported to disconnect and cease playing audio after an arbitrary amount of time. Re-selecting the DS as a speaker should allow the stream to reconnect.
- Due to change in RS232 preamp selection code, any beta users with an RS232 preamp selected may have to use Konfig to re-select their preamp.
- Any Kisto/Kinos users already using the beta who have not manually updated their source names should revert to a pre-beta release and back to the beta release to migrate source names.
