Thanks for adding USB audio support.

When using a PC as an USB audio source to the amplifier, not the Bluesound Node, I can play, pause, skip forwards and backwards from the remote of the amplifier that I'm playing in. This does not seem to work for the Node. Will this be supported later on?

  This is not supported and there are no plans to do so. To listen to music stored on your local PC, create a file share. To listen to streaming not directly integrated into BluOS, use Bluetooth.

  I know how to listen to music from the PC. The point wasn't that the music was stored on the PC, I can be playing from Tidal on the PC into my amplifier's DAC and can then control music from my amplifiers physical remote control. In other words, the amplifier and PC can communicate both ways. This is highly convenient. 

  Adding this, when USB audio support has already been established, might not be a huge task. I don't know.. I think you should consider it anyway.
