Well, that Squeezebox has seen some “service” before. There are some
via’s (= connections between different layers of the PCB) who have been
soldered. The white traces you seen and also the ‘smear’ around some of
the soldering indicate those have been re-soldered. Possibly a previous
owner (?) that also had issues with it. 
Anyway, you could try it with the radio removed. If that doesn’t work
then your SB needs service.
