Have you enabled MPD's verbose log level and looked at the log output (/var/log/mpd/log) to see if there are any hints of under-runs or other suspicious events when you experience stutters?
I think you need to find some "birds of a feather". If there aren't other Topping E50 users on this forum then I'd go looking on the forums at, say, diyaudio.com or audiosciencereview.com. If they report successful MQA playback on RPi SBCs then one can get into what is different in their setups.
