Roon is downsampling to 48kHz on Hiby R4 DAP

Playing 192kHz tracks from Tidal on Roon on my Hiby R4 DAP is downsampled to 48kHz.
Not happening on Windows with an DAC and also Tidal playing 192kHz on the Hiby R4.
What am I missing here? Why is Roon downsampling my HiRes tracks?

Because it doesnt respect the bespoke system bypass that these DAPS use. It assumes being Android device it needs to accept Androids stock system rate of 48/24 and is hard coded to resample as it would on a phone. this has been explained so many times on the forum if you use search its standard behaviour for Roon.

Only fully Roon Ready DAPS from Fiio or A&K currently will play bit perfect, the Roon Android App never will.
