Description of Issue
All local audio devices ie those connected with USB and sound card drop out after around 3 minutes. This has been a persistent issue since latest 1.8 release!! Roon worked perfectly before this release.
I removed the Tidal login file as suggested on support forum but this does not help
I just performed complete uninstall of Roon settings and database.
The problem is with Chord Hugo TT DAC both WASAPI and ASIO drivers. Works OK when I switch System Output to the Chord DAC but when I enable and select the Chord DAC as audio device in Roon; the device will successfully enable however after around 2-3 secs of playback then the device disappears.
This did not happen in versions of Roon earlier to around the release from 3-4 weeks ago.
The problem does not occur anymore when I use the soundcard as the output so it appears to be the DAC. The DAC output works perfectly as a default system output and as an audio output for other media players where I can select it as an audio device.
I installed the Chord Hugo TT drivers on another Windows 10 PC and set up Roon as Core on that machine. No problems there and all works OK so I’ll leave it at that. Thanks for all the suggestions
