When powering on the unit with all cables connected (e.g. the signal. This is consistent with the symptoms of a DAC that has lost clock sync. You can restore clock sync by unplugging the cable, holding it for a few seconds and then plugging it back in, which will renegotiate the data plane.Some DACs (but maybe not in this price range) usually have strategies to help them recover from a clock drift.I have the unit Tested with several different sources (computer, TV, cable box) and several different USB power sources (just in case electrical stress should occur. Output channel leaks), and I made sure to include the ones listed on the product page (e.g. PCM) to follow the instructions and restrictions described. Some sort of fatal error of having to unplug and replug the Toslink cable every time would defeat the purpose. Disclaimer - I did not test the digital coax input, only SPDIF. I didn't have any coaxial digital sources handy. But since I suspect this is a DAC issue, I didn't expect it to make a difference.
