Maybe try compiling the Git master version of librespot and see if it works better.
That really depends on each individual alsa backend. Last time I tried airplay it didn't sound very good at all until I fix the buffer parmas. Similar issues to librespot. What you think runs fine could be the result of not knowing/hearing any better. The only way to find out for yourself is to check to see what each backend is doing and then do an abx comparison to see if changing buffer parmas actually makes an audible and/or performance difference. You would need to do these tests on your lowest spec target device.
