Package: mpd
Version: 0.24.3-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

The snapcast plugin is not binding to a port when activated.
From my mpd.conf:

audio_output {
type "snapcast"
name "Snapcast"
format "44100:16:2"
#port "1704"
#bind_to_address "::"
zeroconf "no"
}

The commented lines represent the defaults, but I still see no binding even when those lines are declared with any value.

What does "activate" mean?

The output only binds to a port when it is enabled. Can you confirm
that you did enable this output? Post data to back your assertion.
