`emms-all' (as the name suggests) already requires `emms-player-mpd'.

I have it connected to a remote machine (I don't actually use mpd, but
have that machine for testing Emms), but my setup looks similar aside
from that, and aside from the fact that I don't use "use-package" or
doom.
It should work, at its simplest, if you invoke:
emms-player-mpd-connect
...followed by:
emms-player-mpd-update-all
Can you please do that and report back?
