And so I've applied the workaround suggested in the 2nd message and the loud white noise was gone. However, I can hear no sound at all now.
I'm using Raspberry Pi 3 with Allo Piano 2.1 DAC and the Kali reclocker.

I tried other bitrates for the SoX resampling and they didn't work...
I hope I've given enough information in order for this to be debugged. Thanks in advance.
Go ahead and do what Tim asked, but I have a background observation.
The specific post you cite describes a workaround for a kernel bug which prevents the Allo product from reproducing audio sampled at 24-bit depth. The workaround consists of padding each 3-byte sample (=24 bits) to a length of 4 bytes (=32 bits). Technically this isn't resampling since all the existing bits stay the same.
But you said "another MP3 song." That's not 24-bit audio. Indeed, since MP3 is a lossy compression technique, it's difficult to assign a notion of a bit depth to MP3-encoded material. If MP3 is the problem then the workaround would not seem to be the answer.
How about looking at both songs---the one that plays and the one that fails to play?
