Hi, Oddly (and fortunately!), in my case the TAEC works (at 16 bit) with all linux boxes I tried, but at 24 bits it functions only under windows (with the proprietary driver). With all linux machines I tried, 24 bits playback give rise to this clicking.
One other thing: the kernel messages you got. janv. 23 18:23:09 pumpkin kernel: delay: estimated 0, actual 95 janv. 23 18:23:09 pumpkin kernel: delay: estimated 0, actual 94 janv. 23 18:23:09 pumpkin kernel: delay: estimated 2, actual 95 I don't have these on 16 bits playback (no crackles) but they show up when playing 24 bits (and it clicks). So they are likely to be related to the problem, but it would take someone (much) more knowledgeable than me to understand what this means exactly. PS. Do you have any other usb devices that might be consuming bandwidth ? Best, Rutger.
