BINGO! I totally missed this requirement of having to also start Mpd. It is now working...

p/s Am using 1.2.2 No issues so far.

That confusion is totally my fault.

Initially on conception of this, there is supposed be an error If you select uppdcli without MPD. But that may not be what expert (x2) users want. A check for this will be implemented in with future versions - with the following logic when you select upmpdcli: audiophiles have a choice to use local MPD, or a remote MPD (enter IP:port). If choice is local MPD, there will be an error if no MPD is selected to start.

Current setup is a compromise for now as I really want to focus on the kernel builder over everything else.

I have both Mpd and Upmpdcli selected as players. I can point Mpd to the Audio input that I am using. I also need to point Upmpdcli to another output, which is a dummy output. I happen to have another output, but what about users who do not have that option? Yes, you have mentioned that this is a compromise for now, but can you please do a quick fix which disables the Upmpdcli Audio output field?

That's an oversight on my part. Yeah, I will add this. In reality Upmpdcli don't have any audio output, so I will just not show any configuration for audio output when starting that player. Added a ticket for this and it will be released in 1.2.6 (hopefully)
