Airplay - auto standby function did not work

Bug ReportsLow Priority

VINSHINE AUDIO reported a client issue:

When MOTIVO is used as Airplay endpoint, it seems that the device is always engaged/connected, not in 'Idle' state, hence, it doesn't go into standby mode.

Auto-Standby function works for Volumio OS native playback, i.e. NAS, Spotify

Software department suggestion: When airplay playback stops or the sender device disconnects, the airplay plugin does not report to the state machine that the status is stop.

VINSHINE AUDIO test cases are as follows:
