Hi Eric,
Happy days! Issue looks to be resolved.
I had forgotten that I had updated the Dell XPS 13 system BIOS a month or so back.
I decided to roll it back this morning, and guess what? No static / signal drop out!
I probably need to monitor it for a few more days, but it is definitely looking very positive.
Just in case anyone else has a Dell XPS laptop, here are the details:
Model: Dell XPS 13 9343
BIOS version that caused issue: A15
BIOS version that appears stable with Roon with USB connected NAD M51: A12
As per your request, I also checked the NAD firmware version. It is a little behind at version 1.43 (most recent version is 1.50), however I am currently of the mind, if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. Maybe in a week or two I will try updating the BIOS again and NAD firmware to see if that is a stable combination.
