Pi Zero + FePi + Icecast = Buffer Overrun / Dropouts

Sat Dec 28, 2019 11:06 pm

I'm trying to use a Pi Zero (running Buster 10) with a FePi stereo input card to stream Icecast audio, but with mixed success.
While it connects with the server (a Pi 3) without problem, the audio drops out every few seconds and I get this error:

AlsaDspSource :: Buffer overrun!
AlsaDspSource :: Buffer overrun!
AlsaDspSource :: Buffer overrun!
AlsaDspSource :: Buffer overrun!


I've read through this forum and others and even found a link that promised to help solve Buffer overrun issues, but alas, it was a dead link.

Am I asking too much of the Zero? Streaming with a Pi 3 or 4 works fine. Any magic?
