I have 2 Libratone Zipps, so I'll answer. To play from LMS you just
select a track to play (in LMS's UI), and the speaker will switch to
'AirPlay' - from there you can press the 'bird' icon (on the speaker) to
play/pause, and use the prev/next buttons (again on speaker). To play a
stream you press a 'heart' icon (on the speaker), and it flashes 1 of 5
small dots to let you know which favourite - you press the 'heart' to go
to the next. If LMS (AirPlay) was active then LMS is paused and the
stream plays. To resume LMS playback you need to use an LMS controller,
but the speaker will automatically switch.

Hope that makes sense.
