Posted this on AI a while back, but got no response.
Does anyone besides me have the same setup (3G iPod with dock not connected to computer) or does anyone have a different setup and experience the same problem?
--------------------------------------------------------
I've got a 40GB 3gen iPod, a Universal Dock and have itconnected directly to my mini hi-fi, with no connection to the computer. I have a 3rd party power adapter.
The problem I have is periodic drop outs of all sound for two seconds. It always happens in pairs. What happens is this: after some time of problem-free playback, seems like sometimes 10 minutes, sometimes 20, etc... the sound drops out for two seconds, then resumes. About 20 seconds later it happens again. Then the problem goes away for about an hour, after which it sometimes happens again.
It could be the iPod, could be the dock, and could be the stereo. I have no idea.
It happens whether my iPod is in shuffle songs, shuffle albums, or shuffle off. My backlight is off.
Does anyone have any idea what's happening and how to stop it? It's annoying.
