Changing the buffer size doesn't affect things, and increasing it tends to make it worse. It almost always resolves itself by simply toggling to a different playback device in windows, and toggling back. It tends to happen more when I play movies in the computer, where the sampling frequency is 48khz, but it is not limited to those cases. It sounds like sampling has gone off the rails. The issue is this: in rare occasions, there will be a drop-off or a pop while playing, and sometimes it even mangle and distort the sound to a very high degree.
and it's also not in exclusive mode, if that matters. I have EQ APO running in the background, so in the sound control panel the device is set to enable enhancement, otherwise the EQ doesn't work. I normally set the device to 44.1khz because it's primarily for music, and the buffer size is at 32. It has an ASIO control panel that sets the sampling frequency and buffer size, but all the sound is routed through the window mixer for most applications. The way it's configured, I'm using it as a dac and pre-amp going to my active monitors via TRS connection, and it's plugged into my PC via USB.
The interface is about 3 years old and works perfectly fine 99% of the time. Just note in advance that I'm not currently interested in replacing the unit with something else, just solving the issue if possible. I'm having a little issue with my 2i2 that I don't know what causes it.
