I got it working with alsa by specifying plughw:0 instead of hw:0.
plughw enables half of dmix - i.e. the part of libasound which
does the resampling and sample format conversion. That means that
ALSA will automatically convert 24-16 if the hardware isn't 24 bit
capable.
I do hear glitches
I believe that the ALSA-OSS emulation enables dmix, and therefore also
plughw.

I really don't think mpd-oss-dmix because I tried specifying a
format my DAC can't handle in /etc/asound.conf for dmix. aplay and
all other ALSA apps won't work, but mpd still plays.

My USB DAC is only capable of 16/44.1 16/48 and doesn't do any sort
of oversampling (non-OS). I tried playing a 24/96 file in gmpc and it
plays just fine. This is puzzling since I have:
audio_output {
type alsa
name USB Monica
