If you run the frontend with -v libav,audio, the error that was 
appearing with ffmpeg-resync before I fixed it was this

2021-11-03 14:43:28.698565 E  [ac3_fixed @ 00007fb5939a5c00] Specified 
sample format s16p is invalid or not supported

It seems that s16p was no longer supported in the new ffmpeg version. I 
switched to format FLT (float) to fix it and switched to codec ac3 
instead of ac3_fixed.

I suspect you may be getting some other error.
