Just thought I would post this in case it might help anyone who
encounters a similar problem. (Not sure whether I should post it in the
Touch or LMS section though.)

Short version:
The coax digital output on my Touch wasn't being accepted by one (old)
DAC and when I fed it into my PC via a Focusrite Saffire and recorded
the result using Audacity I found that the left channel had numerous
large spikes but the right channel was perfect (very odd). The Touch's
analogue output was fine. The Touch was taking its feed from LMS running
on a HP Microserver (Ubuntu).

Solution: I deleted and re-installed LMS 


Long Version:
I hadn't been listening to music for a few days and then discovered that
the Meridian G92 I usually feed the digital output into had developed a
fault and was out of action. So I brought out of storage a Copland Amp
and (out of curiosity) an old Tag Maclaren DAC20. The Touch analogue
output worked fine with the Copland Amp but when (out of curiosity) I
tried to feed the coax digital into the DAC20 - no joy. It took me hours
of swapping the Touch with a backup Touch (which had been in storage),
swapping connecting leads, power adaptors, etc. And then I changed the
LMS Library to a mirror copy on my PC - and that worked OK. So, while
not understanding why only one channel of the digital should be
affected, I deleted 7.7.2 from the Microserver and installed 7.7.3 on
that and the PC. That cured the problem.
