Having an issue playing 176.4Kbps files. Using the WiiM Pro Plus as a streamer connected to an external DAC. I use Tidal and ROON as my source with WiiM PP Coax set at 192kbps and 24 bits. When playing 176.4K files, the output skips and distorts badly. Oddly, plays 88.2Kbps files with no problem. Also plays 192K 24 bit files perfectly. The same setup works fine at 176.4K using an old Squeezebox Touch - zero distortion. Is the Pro Plus able to play 176.4K files? Thanx.
 
Hello, I just tried a few moments ago on a WiiM Pro (not plus), optical out to a DAC.
I tested multiple methods:

1) as a Squeezelite player from the LMS library
2) as a UPnP renderer from a local library through BubbleUPnP
3) as a UPnP renderer from Qobuz through BubbleUPnP
4) from the WiiM application through Qobuz

I have experienced no issue. I don't have Roon avaialable though unfortunately.
Is there any other specific test you'd want me to try?
