Thanks for the pointer. No improvement for version 7.8 unfortunately...

I tried to play 88.2kHz on the Radio because of what you said earlier:

In an attempt to understand the issue I have resampled a 96kHz track to
88.2kHz and played both versions on the Radio without resampling server
side. I couldn't tell them apart. One track is a rather small sample of
course.

More importantly though I'd like to suggest to include the custom
convert rule as standard to let the Radio play 96kHz streams such as the
one mentioned above.
