Thanks to all for the advice.

I connected my Touch directly to the switch to which my PC is
connected.  There was no other network traffic.  I listened with
headphones (having nearly forgotten to turn the volume down!), and kept
the Touch screen display on (as I often do for convenience).

The problems remain, exactly the same.   The display shows
'rebuffering' particularly when changing tracks, or 24/96 tracks using
PCM.  No problems with native flac.  I've previously tried completely
disabling all security software on the server, so I'm pretty sure it
isn't that (and anyway I'd expect that to have some occasional problems
with flac).

If it is a PC problem (rather than a Touch problem) I'll doubt I'll
find it. Master Gates's devices are rather complex.  I'm not that bad
with PCs, but this sort of problem would defeat me quite easily.  The
event log is clean.  I do have an MS network monitor which I'll try,
but not for long...
