Upgrade to 6.4.2 and report back.
I upgraded Moode to 6.4.2. (yay! - an alphabetical list on the right to quickly jump to an artist / folder) The problem didn't go away but I now became aware of the fact that there is a 3 second timer involved. If I stop a song (or it stops by itself) then the optical connection stays alive for 3 seconds, after which I hear a very faint pop through the speakers. After this moment, if I start to play a song, the first 1-2 seconds are missed. But before this moment (within those 3 seconds), if I start a new song, it plays perfectly.
There are multiple ways (among others I'm sure) to solve this:
1- Automatically first play a short 1-2 second silence track whenever a new song is selected by the user to play
2- Keep the optical PCM output always on
3- Increase the 3 second timer
I'm not sure which is most straightforward / simple, but option #3 sounds potentially easy. Does anyone know where / what is controlling that 3 second timer which shuts off the PCM after a song is completed? If I could extend that (to, say 30 seconds) then that would help a lot. (or if there's an easy way to implement one of the other options that's probably even better)

(Sorry, I forgot to test the SoX upsampling. Good idea, I'll do that tonight.)
