Dante + AVB problem

Hi everyone,

 

I’ve been experiencing a recurring issue for several months now, and unfortunately, I haven’t been able to find a solution despite my research.

 

Context:
When I configure two VLANs on a single switch (one for Dante and one for AVB), everything works perfectly. However, as soon as I add multiple switches in trunk mode, I experience audio dropouts of about ten seconds every 2 to 3 hours on the Dante VLAN (AVB remains very stable).

 

What I’ve already tried:

  • I’ve kept the default settings for the configuration.
  • I’ve also tested other settings, but without success.

If anyone has encountered this issue before or has any suggestions for resolving it, I’d greatly appreciate your advice or feedback.

 

Thank you in advance for your help!
