Soundcloud Provider songs not playing properly

[ZombieAce]

What happened

Every song (regardless if its SoundCloud GO or not) only plays the first 30 seconds then loops back to the start until it reaches the end and it goes beyond even the timer. Seeking a specific part of the song will make it buffer a bit, before it actually plays the desired part for a short while before looping back to the first 30 seconds again.

Steps to reproduce

1. Switch to SoundCloud in the sources
2. Go to Tracks or Liked
3. Select any of your liked songs
4. Watch it loop endlessly

Expected behavior

It should play the entire song from start to finish instead of looping the first 30 seconds.

Screenshots / video

Environment

• cliamp version (cliamp --version): v1.52.0
• OS: Omarchy (Arch Linux)
• Audio backend (PipeWire / PulseAudio / ALSA): PipeWire (though in the audio menu it shows up as ALSA Playback so im not entirely sure..)
• Provider(s) involved: SoundCloud

Could you share one affected SoundCloud track URL and the output of these commands?

yt-dlp -F "URL"
yt-dlp -f "bestaudio[protocol=https]/bestaudio[protocol=http]/bestaudio[protocol!=m3u8_native][protocol!=m3u8]/bestaudio" --print "%(format_id)s %(protocol)s %(duration)s" "URL"
yt-dlp -f "bestaudio" --print "%(format_id)s %(protocol)s %(duration)s" "URL"

This will show whether SoundCloud is only exposing a 30s preview, or whether cliamp is picking the wrong format.

I tested the 3 commands on this URL: Mili - Tian Tian
The first command downloaded the song as a video just fine.

The following two commands gave this output:

http_mp3_1_0 http 248.685
hls_aac_160k m3u8_native 248.685
