Ok, I am having some wierd problems here. I am _very_ new to linux so, please, be gentle.

You are running an old version (0.2.4?) that doesn’t transcode ogg or flac. You’ll want to probably run a newer version (http://nightlies.mt-daapd.org). Delete your config file, and install the newer package. Let it put in a new config file. Then edit the config file to point to the right directories.

You’ll probably want to set the “runas” user to “alice”, or whoever’s home directory it is.

That should get you going.
