I picked up a K11 back in January but haven't used it much until last week. I have moved from a large PC with headphone amp soundcard to a minipc, so I needed a usb dac. The K11 has had some pretty glowing review so it seemed a good for me.

What I have noticed the past couple of weeks is that the audio drops out for a couple of seconds intermittenly. It seems confined to the line out, or at least I have not noticed it on my headphones.

Just updated to firmware 1.22 from 1.05. Maybe this will help but it's an odd issue nonetheless. It thought initially it might be a problem with Windows 11 so I installed the fiio driver. That did not help. Switching to a USB 3.2 gen2 to a USB 3.2 gen1 did not help either, though a post on reddit suggested it would.

Have others experienced this?
