  Is the HiFiBerry Amp driver loaded? This looks like a misconfigured asound.conf.
  Have a look here how it should look like:

  It seems, that shairplay is configured to use an non-existing PCM device. I recommend starting shairplay in verbose mode in foreground and check the output.

  Hi,
  
  you can't have 2 program running that use the sound interface. Only one program can use it at the same time.
