I've been Running default flavor of Ubuntu since 12/22 without issue; still version 16.04.3. I didn't switch to 17 or 18 because I use my machine for my work, and I do like to run the most stable version. I've realized that Ubuntu doesn't run simulated 7.1 surround sound well. I got it working a few years ago with another headset so I thought I could replicate the same solution with my Astro A40's. It just didn't work.
