Sounds like you mean you are just running squeezeslave as a service? did you install a squeezeslave service addon? If you have squeezeslave running on your system before you start XSqueeze, it's not coming from XSqueeze and you need to look elsewhere.
If so - you use XSqueeze in controller only mode to control this, but the squeezeslave you run separately at the OS level.
XSqueeze isn't a service, it only works by start/stop of a local player if it's doing playback - it only runs the player process while it is runnign and then kills it on exit. But you definitely can just use it as a controller only if you are running a player some other way (software like squeezeslave or hardware players for that matter).
