I have a similar use case for a piCorePlayer built into an old
transistor radio, and I have found the asound mono settings to work
reliably. 

I usually start with Squeezelite Settings > Card Control and uncheck
Enable/disable built-in audio (so that built in audio is disabled), and
hit save. Then in Squeezelit Settings, clear the Output settings box,
and hit save. 

In the asound settings select:

Mono
Any volume adjustment you want to make
Either hw or plughw (I use plughw)
Card: 0

And hit write. Squeezelite should restart, and hopefully you will be in
business.
