What I can confirm is that the quality of the built-in audio output is pretty poor. Distortion and noise are unacceptable. I use mine with a Muse PCM2704 USB-to-SPDIF converter feeding an old QED Digit DAC, and it works fine that way.
You mention stuttering as well as distortion. If it is genuinely dropping samples then perhaps it's simply a case of the Pi running out of steam when you try to run LMS and Squeezelite together? The Pi is a very low power device, after all. One way to check this would be to try shutting down LMS on the Pi and trying it as just a Squeezelite player from another LMS on your network.
