Someone mentioned that the problem only occurs with the optical
output, and the coaxial output is fine.  Is that correct?  I was
planning to use the coaxial output anyway.  

Does the Squeezebox do anything special regarding HDCD?  HDCD just
looks like 16-bit PCM audio, unless there is an HDCD decoder present
to recognize the coding in the LSB.  At least, that's how it's
presented everywhere that I have read about it.  I am actually trying
to figure out how to get a decoded HDCD signal sent through the
Squeezebox's digital output to a 24/96 capable DAC.
        a) Does the Squeezebox have an HDCD decoder? (doubtful)
        b) When presented with a non-16/44.1 WAV from the server, what
                does the Squeezebox do?
                i) if the signal is 16/48?
                ii) if the signal is 20/44.1?
                iii) if the signal is 24/96?
        c) If the DAC is not capable of converting a PCM stream, will
           it pass the signal through to the SPDIF ouput?  If not, is
           there potential to support that feature with a future
           firware update?
