Note:
*****

Command line options should really be placed inside the punchbox.yaml file,
which can be edited freely. Options to configure the specific music box can be
inspected in the default config file. Command line variables always override
config file variables.

Currently the punchbox.yaml file config is not "configurable" if you are 
pulling a newer version of punchbox, backup your config file and delete the
`punchbox.yaml` file - this will be solved in an update soon.
