Was not expecting the untranscoded to work. However, with transcoding on, I get a pause button instead of a stop button in Kazoo, and I cannot stop playback unless I switch to another playlist entry. With native FLAC and AAC, I get a stop button and all works as expected.

This seems to be an issue with how the DS handles WAV network streams. Kazoo sends a Pause command to the DS but for some reason the DS ignores it. I tried this with another OpenHome renderer (the Melco N1 USB-DAC renderer) and Pause from Kinsky works as expected. For this renderer, Kinsky doesn't show a Stop button for the WAV stream (it seems to show either Pause or Stop but not both).

The DASH stream can be paused (time shifted) for up to 10 minutes without losing any audio.
