.dsf file playback stutters

Latest image loaded onto Raspberrypi 2B playing over Schitt Audio Bitfrost DAC (not DSD capable). DSF file loaded onto USB stick and played on device. The file plays, but stutters a lot. As I understand mpd settings, if DSD is set to on, then mpd attempts DSD native, next attempts PCM wrapped DSD, and lastly does on-the-fly conversion. I have tried playing with the DSD switch both on and off.

A competing player seems to play DSF files fine.

JRiver on linux apparently only addresses one core -- that is the explanation as to why it won't play DSF files.

What settings or config files should I edit to get DSF files to play. I like everything else about this player!

Thanks!
