Knowing that you're connecting the hard drive directly to the Touch is a
good start. If you check the forums, you'll find that the Touch has
always been problematic when using a directly connected hard drive. Some
makes & models of USB drives work better than others, and the Touch's
built-in LMS, in general, doesn't tolerate directory, artwork and file
naming errors well. These issues get more difficult as the size of the
collection increases.

When the drive is first attached, it must be allowed to do its search
uninterrupted (i.e, don't play music until it's done). This can be a
slow process which can be frustrating. 

I use an external Vortexbox server and don't have any Apple lossless
files in my collection, so hopefully others will pop in with ideas for
you. You can also read the many discussions on this subject already in
the forums and check the Wiki page at:

Good luck!
