Boom FW 54 - Alarms will only work at the top of the hour

Since FW 54, my alarm at 6:50am does not work. Deleted and re-created the alarm. Still didn't work. Alarm scheduled for 7:00am worked. In a previous test, the alarm I scheduled for 6:00pm worked. Has the fix for this bug https://bugs-archive.lyrion.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12319 somehow changed the overall behaviour of the alarm.
Hi Mick It's been a while since you reported this issue and we are now on FW 57. I just retested the alarm against the latest LMS and it worked as expected. Even with an alarm time not at the top of the hour. Please note there are three alarm levels for SB Boom. First it tries to fire the playlist you've specified, if that fails and the player still has a connection to the server it tries the server backup alarm (20 seconds later). If the player has lost the connection to the server it uses the internal rtc alarm. I've tested all three kinds of alarms and they worked ok. Please feel free to reopen this bug if you still encounter this issue with the latest LMS and FW. Thanks Felix
