Thanks Przemek. Appreciated. Indeed. Transferred my mpg321 converted mp3 -> wav track back to my Mac and - played perfectly (as, obviously, did the mp3 track).
I also found a load of wav files, verified they played on the Mac, transferred them to the uSDCard and thence to the BBGW. All played fine on the Mac, all were 'broken' (as per last posts) on the BBGW. What I don't 'get' is that, after updating alsa.conf and re-initialising alsactl, the BBGW seems to play tracks correctly until it detects a change in sample rate (maybe ?) then nothing / no tracks play correctly - not even the ones that just played perfectly !!!! So, all-in-all, I'm still not sure whether it's a software 'thing' or a USB hardware 'thing'... I'll get back onto it first thing in the morning... thanks for your ongoing help.
