My FiiO KA3 usb dac tends to not play the beginning of audio after silence. Very obvious when using windows's test sound when choosing a format. It sometimes fails to play short sound effects or music at all after silence. I have access to the FiiO Control App to change settings. I've tried disabling the hardware mute switch and dynamic power policy, still at the default low impedance and high gain. What else should I try?
EDIT: It's very similar to this but the dac doesn't talk to the PC app https://www.reddit.com/r/FiiO/comments/q9d2wr/k3_sound_fade_in_after_silence/
Exactly this issue, where the only idea is to return the device https://www.reddit.com/r/FiiO/comments/ygg2y0/fiio_ka3_questionswindows/
My B550 motherboard is updated to the latest bios from August 2022.
