front:CARD=CODEC,DEV=0 Nope, that doesn't fix it either. To be honest you do need to be listening carefully to hear the clicks. They are well-spaced out, seemingly random and quite low level. So, for example, they could be confused with the picking of a guitar. But then I'm a perfectionist! If you were to run the UCA202 into an amp (rather than the headphones I'm using) I suspect that the clicks would vanish into the general background noise of household activity. Incidentally, out of pure curiosity, I fed the *optical* out from the UCA202 into the Fiio E17 to see whether the noise was appearing on the TOSlink output and, sure enough, it was. This suggests the noise (or whatever it is) is getting in on the digital side of the UCA202, rather than the analogue. Also interesting is that with a track paused I still get very very occcasional pops - like one perhaps every minute but it's not regular. So I'm pretty-well convinced this has nothing to do with buffering and everything to do with poor UCA202 noise isolation of the USB lines. Hell, it's only a £27 DAC! :D In contrast the E17 is a much better product - but also a lot more expensive. For a start there's absolutely no audible noise at all from the headphone output at high volumes. The same can't be said for the UCA202 which is very hissy.
