What OS are you using?  WMA lossless is transcoded (as opposed to WMA
lossy, which uses the built-in decoder).  On Windows this is through
Windows Media Player.  On Linux it's more tricky  (something about
mplayer?)

It should have worked - try transcoding to WAV.

Yes to both.  I have several 24/96 test files and they play fine on the
Transporter in both WAV and FLAC form.  Note: do not enable the spectrum
analyzer screensaver or you'll peg the Transporter's CPU and get
stuttering.  See http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=29059
