It transcodes flac to flac. This shouldn't be necessary. But we've seen
in the past that flac files compressed at highest compression factor
could cause problems with the SB. Maybe that's what's happening here. As

Yes, logic, which is why I've tried several analytic tacks. It seems
likely the problem
Logic needs to be applied.
1. It doesn't matter what the original encoding format was, the TP will
decode it to linear PCM before it appears at the optical output. So that
is a red herring.
2. Is the sample rate or bit depth different to other files that play ok
through the BT adapter? If it
