Audacious - OLD, PLEASE USE GITHUB DISCUSSIONS/ISSUES

Audacious 3.10.1-1 reinstalled during a reinstall of Devuan Beowulf (fork of Debian Linux that eliminates systemd) operating system. When Audacious started by user or by root an error: "Failed to query CDDB server: connection error". Also track names not seen, but appear simply as track 1, track 2... The error pops up when I click Play CD and sometimes at end of last track. Did not have the error with a previous installation of Devuan Beowulf.

The error is repeated. Removing and reinstalling Audacious did not help.

I don't know if significant, but $/lib/udev/cdrom_id --debug /dev/sr0 returns a set of lines like this: "GET CONFIGURATION: feature 0x0001 <ignored>, with 0x08 bytes."

Probably irrelevant is that Audacious 4.0.5 changed its default CDDB server to gnud.db.org (issue #994)

Installing gvfs0backends and gpxtool did not help. I do not have access to a totem-plugins-extra package.

Should I have a line like cddbpath=///.cddbslave in the Audacity config file? My ~/.cddbslave was not created by the installation of Audacious but had to be copied over from the prior installation.

When Audacious is started from a terminal I get:
