Thinking on it more, it is likely that they are not taking an extra step in tying the 1&3 pins together so much as they are just neglecting to split the signal properly for this purpose. Regardless, the livewire interconnect I posted most likely also has this same fault as I doubt it is correctly split at this price point either. I imagine the goal for these products is just being able to make the connection and not necessarily gain any benefit from a balanced input.
So in this case, I would need to purchase a splitter, and then two separate unbal/bal RCA->XLR cables.
Maybe I will set this idea on the back burner and focus on getting the USB adapter to apple dongle to get up and running, and possibly look to an external powered dac with toslink input and balanced output as a longer term solution.
