Since a couple of days I have a beoplay A6 and a Deezer account. Next to this I use de Bang & Olufsen (iPhone and iPad) app to play/ stream Deezer music on the A6 (but also on the Eclipse), however shuffling the music is not possible. When I use the shuffle button nothing happens. Hopefully someone can help me, with solving this issue.

I'm the author of Glider, and I'm hoping I can add a bit of context to the conversation here. 

The DLNA spec allows for media servers to optionally implement a search feature with varying levels of support for different tags (artists, albums, etc.) Many popular media servers do not implement this feature at all, including Synology and Plex. Even when implemented, searching is usually slow since the queries are sent to the server in real-time, and results will be limited to a particular media server.

Glider gets around these limitations by performing a complex sync operation across all of your connected media servers (even if they don't support search) to create a single library that's fully searchable directly in the app. We also allow you to sync non-DLNA sources including your local iTunes library. This sync process is well outside of the DLNA spec, and sometimes we run into issues with certain media servers that don't behave the way we expect. 

If you're having any issues at all with the app, please get in touch with us at support@glideraudio.com so we can work with you to get them fixed.
