I'm not sure I understand everything about your message, but as far as I understand, you don't need to have MPD and Sonata on the same box at all. The only real limitation I know is that you can't use the "Edit tag" feature of Sonata to edit your songs, but the rest should be working flawlessly. If it doesn't, then it's probably a bug somewhere. So, you can run MPD and Sonata on the same box, but you don't *have to*. If that doesn't answer your question, please clarify.
