@michelangelo I submitted another log tonight with the air connected to Ethernet and attempting AirPlay. Same results as before. Let me know if you need more logs.

Another note on the hardware side. Connecting the Ethernet cable I notice the cable I used had a clip that was quite high on the RJ45 connector. This resulted in a very difficult time in removing the cable. It is very cramped area where the port is. Not a big deal for me as I don't plan to use it with wired connection but thought it was something to note. If you want a pic I can post one or send it over
