Yep. Schiit Urd unison usb output. It’s very picky about what it plays with despite Schiit claiming anything UAC compliant works.
You can simply convert the Urd's Coax output to Toslink, with one of these inexpensive converters:

Or is it that you need both Coax and Toslink out of the Urd?

Thanks but can imagine it wouldn’t work with those either. I know the Topping D10 works so I’ll go with that.
It would 100% work. And at a much lower cost than the D10s, and with identical sound quality.

That contraption still needs its own power source. No good to me.
If it must be USB powered, I would first try the Hifime UT23.

It's way less expensive than the D10s (no built-in DAC, go figure), and extremely basic (UAC1, low power consumption), making it highly compatible.

Honestly, just use a good USB adapter, like a first party Samsung charger or LG or HTC, as all of those are quality. Otherwise, just buy one quality charger.

I suppose we are talking about D10s here, is that right?
In this case, you don't have to use a power supply !
D10s is powered directly from USB port. There is not a separate power input socket.

Yes, it's supposed to be D10s, but the topic seems to be moving in a different direction.
