Sorry for being sceptical but Squeezelite also "seemed" to work but
didn't. Personally I didn't expect audio output - "daemon" mode could
mean it expects to be "controlled" by another appliucation (e.g. a GUI
interface). The next step I suggest is to omit the "-daemon"

Normal for mplayer. Nothing special.

No avahi protocol is something entirely separate - IIRC used to identify
services available on different devices (e.g. apple Airplay)

Strange - as it is a standard option and usually more than one "-v"
gives more output.
Code:
--------------------
/var/packages/AudioStation/target/bin/mplayer -v -v -gapless-audio -ao alsa
-unique USB -daemon .........
--------------------
If audio is not playing (i.e. if "daemon" is slave mode) then it might
make sense no output which means trying with no "-daemon" is definitely
something to try.
It may be worth trying the following to get mplayer to display some of
the supported options.
Code:
--------------------
/var/packages/AudioStation/target/bin/mplayer -h
/var/packages/AudioStation/target/bin/mplayer -ao help
--------------------
