I've been using the SMSL SU-1 for a few months now. When it works I'm very happy. But the USB handling seems poor.

Basically/technically the XMOS chips seem great, but now I'm afraid to get another DAC that has it.
I'd like to know if all DAC with XMOS USB behave like this.
Is there any alternative to XMOS?

Issue 1 currently on:
- SMSL SU-1 (XU-316)
- Fosi Audio ZD3 (XU-316)
Issue 2 currently on:
- SMSL SU-1 (XU-316)
1) USB disabled on input switch, DAC maker firmware decision or XMOS feature?
2) Squeezelite-X ASIO USB crash, XMOS driver bug?
