Your symptoms above point to a local network problem on your end
(constant buffering and the spotify issue).  In particular, the
buffering on local music is a function of your network, wifi
interference or strength, or something going on with your NAS.  Is your
local music FLAC, mp3, or ?  And if FLAC, is it 16/44.1 (redbook CD) or
hires. Since you have a sparc-based NAS, if you are trying to stream
hires, or WAV/PCM, etc. this could be a problem.

p.s. when I started with Squeezeboxes I used a ReadyNAS sparc based nas.
It was horrible. dropouts, slow browsing, etc.  The problem was it was
simply not powerful enough to really run LMS properly. Switched to a
more powerful NAS (vortexbox on a small headless computer) and it was
night and day. Everything has worked perfectly for years.
