Just my two cents here, but I noticed you have a wireless network config
similar to mine, running Unifi antennas. One of the biggest thing that
helped in my case was to disable band steering which was systematically
causing sync dropouts when the access point was trying to push either
player into the 5ghz band.  Unless you've already figured out the root
cause, you should probably give that a shot.

Emby, Chromecast v1 and v2 and...

flying around, some with ethernet*!
