davide256 Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 Since you have a microRendu, I would connect to it, resave the existing endpoint choice and then power cycle it Regards, Dave Audio system Link to comment

This was the general fix Regards, Dave Audio system Link to comment
davide256 Posted July 12, 2020 Share Posted July 12, 2020 1) unplug your USB to DAC cable and plug it back in 2) in sonic orbiter select DAC diagnostics and verify Sonic orbiter sees your DAC 3) see if you can see the MR after this from Roon core audio settings, if so make sure its enabled You cannot attach a Roon endpoint if it doesn't have a working audio output (DAC) Regards, Dave Audio system Link to comment

I've been testing out Roon for past two weeks. So I know it works. A rare problem is that your DAC can be muted at the microRendu, see thread below Regards, Dave Audio system Link to comment

A failed pre section in the PS Audio DAC would cause the same symptoms... best to verify it works with Mac connected direct to DAC so that you have done verified fault isolation. If that works go back to MR and see if you get headphone sound.. if you don't you know its an MR issue. If you do, then the problem is downstream from the headphone circuit in your PS Audio DAC Regards, Dave Audio system Link to comment

Your MR should show there as already enabled but sometimes changes causes Roon to see an old device as "new" and you will have to reenable it. If you don't see it, you really have to be sure that the USB DAC is being recognized by the MR as you can't attach a Roon endpoint that doesn't have a working audio output. If you can see it already in Roon, you don't need to do this. Until you connect the Mac to your PSAudio DAC and verify you can or cannot hear sound you could be wasting a lot of time on the wrong issue. You haven't proven that the pre amp section of your device is still working... Regards, Dave Audio system Link to comment
