That DAC does not support DSD over PCM. You will just get hiss or other potentially loud audio glitches. Below is the help for the DSD support option.
If you want to keep the DAC try returning the DSD support setting to "Native DSD (Default)", set SoX to a specific bit depth and sample rate and I'd also suggest setting Mixer type to "Hardware" and turning SoX Multithreading off cos IME it does not appear to make any difference and will prolly be removed in future release.
If that doesn't work let me know cos I have one of those DAC's and IIRC the above settings worked in the past for DSD files.
Code:
Native DSD: If the audio device reports that it supports Native DSD then MPD will send the unaltered DSD bitstream to the device otherwose MPD will perform DSD to PCM on-the-fly conversion.
DSD over PCM (DoP): There is no way to detect if an audio device supports DoP so only enable this if you are certain that the device support it otherwise the encapsulated DSD bitstream may cause loud or unpredictable distortion.If you want to keep the DAC try returning the DSD support setting to "Native DSD (Default)", set SoX to a specific bit depth and sample rate and I'd also suggest setting Mixer type to "Hardware" and turning SoX Multithreading off cos IME it does not appear to make any difference and will prolly be removed in future release.
