After spending much time trying to get this right, and after nearly
giving up on Windows to output audio from LMS/Squeezelite-X for one of
two rooms, I've found that using Windows ASIO drivers with my USB DAC to
be the most accurate way of synchronising with other players. Sync with
a Pi/HiFiBerry running PiCorePlayer (both devices connected via
ethernet) is now reliable, whereas previously using WASPI there was
occasionally an audible drift in synchronisation between players every
so often. This sounded bad when you were between rooms.

The player "synchronise" settings helped with this when using WAPSI, but
it was never perfect. I settled on 30ms Minimum Synchronisation
Adjustment for both players, and ensured that all other settings matched
for both devices. Setting Minimum Synchronisation too low led to some
issues with clicks and pops when playing. 

As soon as I switched Squeezelite-X to output via ASIO, I haven't
noticed any issues with synchronisation and it's been very stable.

Hope this helps in some way.
