    Topping D10 Balanced Review (USB DAC)

    I have a perpetual license because it's all free! If the ecosystem you use has cracked the problem of enabling a bunch of applications (including Firefox) to use the same sound card simultaneously, I'm listening. I believe that's being left to pulseaudio because that's what it is designed to...

    Topping D10 Balanced Review (USB DAC)

    Was reported over a year ago already. The fact that the report involved the D10 is part of why I originally thought it was specific to the D10. I included this link in my first post. https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pulseaudio/pulseaudio/-/issues/1145 I rebooted and selected the standard Bullseye...

    Topping D10 Balanced Review (USB DAC)

    It's the RME ADI-2-DAC FS, latest revision. I'm going to see if going back to an earlier Linux kernel resolves the issue. I am using a later kernel from Debian Bulleye backports that I installed in an attempt to resolve some unrelated glitches (lock-ups, crashes) with the Motu M4 that I ended...

    Topping D10 Balanced Review (USB DAC)

    Just an update here, I received a 3rd type of DAC and had the same issue as the D10. So this issue doesn't seem specific to the D10. I suspect it could be that a Linux kernel or pulseaudio update has broken something that used to work. I can no longer edit my original post to include this...

    Topping D10 Balanced Review (USB DAC)

    @nsfgp For the above I'm just using standard Debian Bullseye on a desktop PC with a few different playback applications: mpd, Rythmbox, Firefox (for Bandcamp and Youtube listening). In my audio system I use mpd direct to ALSA. It's running headless on an ancient Alix 2d2 single board computer...

    Topping D10 Balanced Review (USB DAC)

    You don't need to rely on the DAC to tell you what is happening. You can check exactly the situation in pulseaudio using the following command in the terminal while audio is playing: pacmd list-sink-inputs This shows (among many other things): the source sample rate and bit depth whether...

    Topping D10 Balanced Review (USB DAC)

    Thanks for the reply. Just because it's my first post doesn't mean I don't understand my PC's audio system. I've been using a Linux computer to run my USB DACs since 2008. I fully understand how to achieve bit perfect streams using ALSA, bypassing pulseaudio which is used by most Linux...

    Topping D10 Balanced Review (USB DAC)

    First post. I purchased this DAC to use with my Debian Linux system. I've just set it up and have encountered an issue that others may encounter. The issue is that the sampling rate used by the DAC refuses to change from the default sample rate configured in pulseaudio. All other sample rates...
