As far as Squeezelite-X is concerned, it should be exactly the same as
running squeezelite by itself, since that is all SLX is doing.  SLX runs
the latest version of squeezelite, currently v1.9.9-1392.  Have you
tested various output device settings, and in your testing (comparing
squeezelite and Squeezelite-X) were they set the same?
