Wiim (only?): httpapi call error with getMetaInfo, likely when Wiim is asleep #91

Description

@vingerha

The recently introduced call to collect MetaInfo (e.g. for the picture/url) is crashing likely when the device is not active
https://IP/httpapi.asp?command=getMetaInfo throws back 'Failed' in a certain case, assumingly when the WiiM is asleep. I can not reproduce it easily as there is no manual way to put the WiiM to this state (if it is even a state in sleep)
Error is thrown as the return is no json

When playing something to the WiiM, or hour(s) afer that, all is fine. No clue when WiiM enters the state that throws the error
