On another occasion, I did see on the debug log that squeezlite tried to
reopen the device with plughw, but on my setup, I saw something like
"invalid parameters" and it fails to reopen using plughw.  This is with
the Pogoplug.  With Cubox, it crashes with segmentation fault.

I have libsoxr installed.  For 24/96 stream, the Pogoplug cannot run the
realtime sample to 16/44.1.  But with low bit rate stream like Internet
radio, I think it should be fast enough with sox.

But obviously, it is best to run with plughw so CPU load is low.
