I would recommend using *-o hw:CARD=A,DEV=0* for the output device, this way squeezelite knows the "true" capabilities of the device. ie. only supports 48Khz add *-u E* to the command line which configures squeezelite to resample all streams with sample rates that are NOT 48K. For 48K content

Did the module load? Does lsmod show it loaded? The rpi normally uses overlays to load modules for i2s sound devices. The kernel cannot detect these and automatically load drivers. So you need to manually load this at each boot. piCorePlayer a small player for the Raspberry Pi in RAM.

Hey everyone thanks for the feedback. For the record it was output volume that was my issue and the other playback options didn't solve that so I'm not worried about the rate change as I'll continue to use HW. I did more research last night and the Apple USB-C dongle only outputs 1V RMS so

Use the tool "alsacap" to check the difference in playback capabilities between the "iec958:CARD=A,DEV=0" device and the "hw:CARD=A,DEV=0" Rate issues are usually because Squeezelite reports back to LMS that device is native capable of the playing various output rates - it would be good to see

Just as a quirk with the way pCP works, I would set the device at the top of the page to USB. I know you are not using USB, but that just tells pCP there is no overlays required. Then go to the squeezelite page and expand the output setting. See if the card is listed in the output options.
