This may break the "keep it close to standard" directive, but for many
years I've used the original birdslikewires Joggler / Squeezeplay build
(on internal flash) but with a copy of Squeezelite also loaded and
running as a separate player (started within .xinitrc just before
squeezeplay.sh). Squeezeplay itself uses the internal speaker but is
configured via Choose Player to control the squeezelite instance, which
outputs to a USB DAC - currently a Behringer UCA202 using  "-o
hw:CARD=CODEC,DEV=0" but previously a Topping DAC/Amp. You do need to
configure an explict, unique MAC address via -m for the squeezelite
instance (otherwise LMS gets confused). The original reason was to avoid
transcoding AAC streams and content in a very low-powered LMS and poor
wifi network, but I've kept the configuration even without those
constraints as it works well, with the useful side effect of the touch
interface sounds coming directly from the Joggler but the content coming
from the main system.

Oh - and it works 100% fine with both BBC Sounds and iPlayer. :)
