[Solved] MPD clients connect to server too long first time

Question

When my system start mpd clients cannot connect to server a long(10-15 seconds or more) for some reason.
Same time internet connection and network seems to be ok.
So, It's look like I run mpc for example and it get stuck. This problem is new. 2-4 weeks or less.
I've tried use user and global config without any success.
Mpd config now look like this:
music_directory "/home/neg/music"
playlist_directory "/home/neg/.mpd/playlists"
db_file "/home/neg/.mpd/mpd.db"
log_file "/home/neg/.mpd/mpd.log"
pid_file "/home/neg/.mpd/mpd.pid"
state_file "/home/neg/.mpd/mpdstate"
sticker_file "/home/neg/.mpd/sticker.sql"
user "neg"
bind_to_address "localhost"
port "6600"
input {
plugin "curl"
save_absolute_paths_in_playlists "yes"
metadata_to_use "artist,album,title,track,name,genre,date"
follow_inside_symlinks "yes"
connection_timeout "2"
filesystem_charset "UTF-8"
input {
plugin "curl"
audio_output {
type "pulse"
name "Local Music Player Daemon"
mixer_type "hardware"
server "127.0.0.1"
My netctl profile looks like this:
Description='A basic dhcp ethernet connection'
Interface=enp6s0
Connection=ethernet
SkipNoCarrier=yes
IP=static
DNS=('192.168.1.1')
Address=('192.168.1.35/24')
Gateway='192.168.1.1'
## for DHCPv6
#IP6=dhcp
## for IPv6 autoconfiguration
#IP6=stateless
System start looks almost normal. USB reinit after uefi takes a lot of time sometimes, but it's not critical.

I've tried ::1 addr, sockets etc, nothing gets better.
Also I've tried to upgrade mpd to git or downgrade.

Yes, pulseaudio seems to be ok at that moment.
Also I have such thing in the log ~2 minutes

Also I've tried to set port manually in ncmpcpp, then log messages are NOT gone.
I've already tried alsa-only config. Same issue.
When daemon is "running" clients of it are not response ~1-2 minute.
