I added it to the audio_output section in /etc/mpd.conf but it seems this file gets overwritten automatically.

AFAIK that option only applies to the HTTP server output. It won't have any effect on device audio outputs.

IIRC there is/was an issue posted in the MPD repo to provide this capability but I don't know its status.
