Not sure what „not recognized“ exactly means here, but in a number of similar Qutest DSD threads with other streamers it was necessary to disable the software volume on the streamer. Possibly here as well?
Hello @Andrew_Millner ,
DSD over PCM (DoP) is “DSD playback”. The USB DAC DSD playback capabilities on the AURALiC ARIES G1 are identical using Roon Ready and Lightning DS.
In order to get DSD playback working to the Chord Qutest DAC, you must disable the “Software Volume” option in the Lightning DS settings for the ARIES G1 or on the ARIES G1 itself.

Set the DAC to device volume in Roon, and the Rendu Volume control to Hardware, or None is what seemed to work. I have no idea why, but I can now let the WTA filter do its magic. Thanks to all who helped. I hope this helps the next guy.
