Music assistant hanging

I have an issue, music assistant was working fine, then it just stopped. I reloaded it, rebooted it, and nothing. I hadn’t seen it for a while but it appears to have two instance in the config that are exactly alike. One with the wrong IP 172.x.x.x and a second with the correct one 192.x.x.x. Don’t know if that’s normal. It’s also brown, like it’s not working. It worked fine last week.

I REALLY don’t want to uninstall and reinstall. This is what the config screen looks like and there aren’t any errors to speak of. The logs aren’t updating anymore, the time shown was 12 hours ago from this post:

I pick a semi-nuclear option. Just restored from backup, MA add-on only. I had tried to delete it but it didn’t delete fully and left junk that left me unable to reinstall. Recap- It disappeared from the addons after deleting, I restored from backup the addon, then I reinstalled and the reinstall actually worked.
