I ASSume the aux cable has to contain a DAC - that's really the only place the digital-to-analog conversion could be taking place. I have the streaming quality set to max in the Sirus app, which is supposedly 320kbps - or about 6-8x better than the. satellite stream. It sounds fantastic. Unlimited data on my T-Mo plan so no worries there. Important to me because I live in the sticks, and there are literally zero FM stations within range that I want to listen to.

This is the cable I'm using - $18.49 from Amazon:

Hopefully it will keep working for you.
I have 2 similar gizmos at home that are charging docs with 3.5 mm jacks.
Thought one of them broke, but on a whim I tried the other. Same thing.
Apparently Apple updated something in iOS 12.x. Now my iPod plays for 10 seconds and then launches into fast forward.

Edit: Update: Just updated from iOS 12.1.1 to 12.1.4, and now my docks work again.
Beware iOS 12.1.1.
