What player on HTC 10 do you tried? Stock, Google Music or 3rd part like Poweramp/Neutron/etc? ALAC not supported on stock players (except IOS) I think.
Check Audio Output and Resample if 3rd party. Sometimes I got weird results from messing options on smartphone (trying to get true 192Khz/24-bit not 48Khz native to Android).
My understanding is that HTC uses google to access and play music files and as such it is utilizing HTC 10's excellent stock amp and dac. I downloaded poweramp yesterday and unfortunately it uses its own audio engine with no ability to access HTC 10's remarkable amp/dac. This makes sense as the work necessary to access all of the various players' audio engines would not be feasible. Poweramp's ability to shape the sound according to your personal taste is a useful tool but if you are using a high quality phone and the 10's internals then your are not getting the best of what each has to offer. I'm going to convert my files at the source.
