I have gone to "Configure Music Services" > "Radio Paradise" and turned off "Enable anonymous use" but my three Flex 2i's are still trying to contact "api.radioparadise.com" and "api2.iheart.com" every 30 seconds.

 

How can I stop this from happening, it's filling up my Pi-Hole logs?

  Your Bluesound players will make periodic calls to the API to check server status etc. In the case of iHeart Radio, it is checking to verify you are in the geographic region that allows iHeart Radio's service. You can safely ignore these in your firewall logs.

  I don't think you can call every 30 seconds "periodic".

  Can I have an option to turn this off?  My speakers do not have internet access and I never use any online music services.
