Are you able to play a > 44.1K Apple Music track to moOde's Airplay 1 (shairport-sync) renderer?
Yes, thats what I was using last night when I tested it, an RPi 4B running Moode 7.3.0, but they are no doubt being re-sampled, if I'm not mistaken that happens on the Mac/transmit side of things with Airplay.
Even years ago when I first ripped my DVD-Audio discs and found that iTunes would readily accept them and output them over Airplay to the Airport Express, the tracks play just fine, but they are re-sampled to 16/44.1 prior to transmission to the AEx.
One thing to note about that instance of Moode 7.3.0 and Shariport-Sync is that RPi is connected to my network via Ethernet, not WiFi, so my test did not involve the RPi connected via WiFi, only Ethernet. The MacBook Air on the transmit side is connected to the network via WiFi however.
