So how do you know the problem is not related to that switch or those
short cables?

Irrelevant. Example 1: if the fault is the port or cable connected to
the Touch then you could see exactly the same symptoms. Example 2: you
make no statement re. the performance of such transfers and so while
you can exchange such files, that alone does not mean there is not a
fault on your network.

I looked briefly and you are getting many retransmits, both when
streaming FLAC and PCM. 

That is a big indicator of a networking issue, and every symptom you
have so far described also suggests you have a network problem. 100Mb/s
is more than sufficient for streaming PCM - a single stream would not
max out the connection (Do the math, it's not a complex calculation).
Also the Touch is capable of receiving a PCM stream and playing it
without issue as others have already confirmed. 

But if you are still 100% convinced the fault is not your network, then
you only have 3 choices left: Change the server, change the touch or do
nothing and enjoy the FLAC stream
