MPD and ALSA will try to play a bit depth and sample rate that your DAC will accept but the DSP plugins most of which are not maintained anymore have their own limits and methods of failing that neither MPD not ALSA have control over.
Also when you set MPD to resample at bit depths and rates that are incompatible with either the DSP plugin and/or the audio device there can be unexpected results.
