No Audio Through Raspberry Pi B+ (Limited Linux Experience)

Hi,

First post on GitHub. I've been working on shairport-sync (dev version) to play through my raspberry pi audio jack with partial success.

I am able to see my device on Airplay but no luck with audio.

After some digging through the other issues on this forum I thought my problems were with the configuration file. My understanding is that the config will run with a fully commented out file?

I did not understand this before and uncommented the sample config file, I think that is why some of the "drift setting"/"resin_threshold" are being ignored.

The last line of the code shown repeats with different microsecond values if I leave my iPhone playing music while connected.

I've modified my ignore_volume_control ["yes"], and volume_range_db ["30"], name ["Sea Stereo"]

This is my first shot with Linux programming/Rpi project, I do have some programming experience but more of a mechanical guy.
