IIRC That transcoding would be triggered if sample rate and/or sample
size was not playable by the player natively. LMS makes transcoding
decision based on info from Flac header and there is nothing in Flac
header about compression level so I think the only way to play is to
send WAV or AIF (just a byte swap difference) to player as sample rate
and sample size are all supported by player.

Philippe did all the recent transcoding mods - if it's possible, he'll
be in the one to answer - unfortunately it's been a while and so details
may fade from memory.
