My player is a RPi4 with a HiFi-Berry DAC+ Pro preamp running
HiFiBerryOS. ItÂ’s running full out into analog AVR (RCA) input, so after
thinking it through, yes, I can do that, but the fact that those two
choices exist, says they probably should be both considered as equally
valid, and handled as such. My manual also outlines running a pre-out
into an external amp as Zone2 setup, so that's yet another way to
consider. It gets complicated fast. An easy way out would be not to do
anything volume related on power on, as this seems to be user settable
(see the attachment)

OK. Later tonight.
