Thanks once more. The aim is to have a Raspberry Pi running piCorePlayer + Bluetooth + LMS with a small library picked for the occasion, everything on the SD card. And there is no network at all in the venues where the end-users will be meeting so the setup will be completely stand-alone, no screen or keyboard within typing distance! Over the last day or two I've done a whole heap more googling and think I'm almost certainly trying to use the wrong tool for my job. pCP and LMS have a network at their heart - a plug-and-play with no user controls does not. I've been using LMS in various ways for about 15 years, so it was my natural first choice. I have just tried my working setup in a place with no network. Plugging in the speaker produced no sound. Going back home, plugging in the speaker produced music as expected - the only difference was wifi being available vs not being available. And I think that confirms that I should be trying something different altogether. So I'm not going to try and take this any further and instead use a better tool for the job. And again, I really am grateful to you for having taken the time to help me this far.
