Hey guys! Recently I did the jump from a YAMAHA AG06 MKII to a STEINBERG IXO22 since the driver was behaving pretty well and I liked the experience of using it a lot. The upgrade made a lot of sense to me for the much lower output impedance, the better dynamic range, the great driver and the cubase license.
However, I am facing audio desync on the playback side with certain programs while using ASIO or WASAPI exclusive through the driver. Ironically, if I use the audio interface without the driver, WASAPI exclusive doesn’t have the issue at all… What is going on here?
The programs I use are compatible with 44.1khz and 48khz, only having issues with 44.1khz. I know using 48khz is a hotfix for this but this renders 44.1khz useless for me, and I don’t want that to happen as I use it from time to time.
At first I thought this would be user error, but no. I’ve tried powering the unit with a PD plug (which did nothing as the issue just happens with the driver installed), I’ve also tried the Motu M2 from a friend of mine, a Truthear Shio and the AG06 MKII (which doesn’t have this issue even though it uses the exact same driver).
What can be done to fix the issue? I’ve tried all buffer sizes, latencies and reinstalled the driver too, for clarification.
Thanks in advance for the help!
