rPi Plexamp stuttering when playing 192/24 flacs

Thanks for the suggestion. I enabled rtprio and cpu load has decreased quite a bit.

$ cat /etc/security/limits.d/audio.conf  
@audio   -  rtprio     95
@audio   -  memlock    unlimited

Also, I have set the sample rate matching to ‘Strict’.

hw_params does not show my hw:2 device which is Allo Boss2 hat. Instead it shows hw:0 only.

$ ./hw_params
PLAYBACK
        Device: hw:0 (type: HW)
        Access types: MMAP_INTERLEAVED RW_INTERLEAVED
