Okay.  I had come across multiple tutorials on setting up
squeezelite/jivelight on raspian.  I've heard it's not quite the same as
loading a pCP image, but maybe that's a project to plan out.

Thanks everyone for their help.

There may (or not) be some useful info in this project "'Raspberry Pi
Zero W with HDMI TV and Jivelite'
(https://docs.picoreplayer.org/projects/rpi0w-hdmitv-jivelite/)".

I have never tried TV and 7" screen output at once.

Well -- there we go.  I ssh'd in to pcp and edited the config to remove
the 'dtparam=vc4-kms-v3d' as well as the settings you had in the post. 
Rebooted.  Ssh'd in again and went through the available outputs
(hw:card=b1, plughw:card, sysdefault:card) via cli.  plughw worked and I
entered that setting into pcp squeezelite output setting.  Rebooted and
now I have sound, and we have the 'needed' requirements resolved.

So -- is it possible to have both the LCD and HDMI outputting something
visual?  As a reminder, this is a older RPi 3B v1.2, and I would love to
have personal pictures on the tv screen, and album information on the
LCD, but even if we just mirrored the LCD to the TV would be cool.

That's what I thought you were getting at.  So, current song playing is
at 44.1 sample rate (from squeezelite.log) and LMS is reporting 319Kbs
CBR.  I don't have any internet radios setup in LMS, and all of my music
is either downloaded or ripped.  Not sure on Download, but ripped,
taking a look at my ABCDE configuration, we're ripping with a variable
bit rate with target of 245Kbps, but can swing between 220 and 260, so I
would assume most of my mp3s are going to be in that 44.1KHz range.

You can usually see what is playing via the "More" function in the web

TV volume is sitting at 50, and the volume slider on the web interface
of LMS is maxed, and I can confirm that alsa volume is at fixed volume
(I assume that's default for HdMI).

This I will try, I can do this is a little quicker than before as I'm

That doesn't need to be in asound.conf. Alsa handles it directly.

I did some more investigation about the subject and found out that
indeed the copied script has invisible characters not known by the
locale C as used in picoreplayer. I found a 'tool'
(https://www.soscisurvey.de/tools/view-chars.php) to view invisible
characters . 
39344
The characters copied from the website
https://docs.picoreplayer.org/projects/add-a-display/ appeared to be  a
Non-breaking space see 
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-breaking_space. Introducing these
characters into to your script on your picorepayer will fail the
script.

As an advice to de writers of the docs files, please remove de
characters which are not in de locale “C” if copy paste is mentioned.
