[Voyage-linux] mpd.conf and DSD files

I had to add in mpd.conf under audio output

    dsd_usb         "yes"

    without it mpd will resample the stream to 192000.

    i'm using voyage mpd with Audiobyte SILVER DRAGON

    the only two things that I had to change were mpd.conf, see above and
install snd-usb-asyncaudio.

    by the way in order to have the dsd files properly inported in mpd
library I advise to retag the files with musicbrainz picard with dsd tagg
plugin from here
