I have no idea why.  But since you can play via S/PDIF from the DAC, this means mpd is able to send USB signal to the DAC.

At last, check the following /etc/mpd.conf to remove "format" line so that it detects the bit-rate correctly:

audio_output {
         type            "alsa"
         name            "My ALSA Device"
         device          "hw:0,0"        # optional
#       format          "44100:16:2"    # optional
#       mixer_device    "default"       # optional
#       mixer_control   "PCM"           # optional
#       mixer_index     "0"             # optional
}
