RS130 not playing from PC

When playing music on (Windows) computer, and transferring vis USB to the RS130, I can see the VU meters are “moving”, but there is no sound going through i2s to my DAC…
Doesn’t matter if I play FLAC, waw or whatever, and tried playing from Foobar, JRiver and others…

When playing Qobuz on the RS130, sound is coming through to the DAC.

Any tips on what could be wrong?
(DAC is Mola mola Tambaqui)

  1. Input/Output Settings
    Please ensure that the RS130 is set to the correct USB input mode and that the I2S output is selected and active in the settings menu.
    If you have recently used other inputs (e.g., network streaming), the RS130 may need to be manually switched to USB input.

  2. I2S Pin Configuration
    The I2S standard is not fully universal, and some DACs require specific pinout or clock settings.
    Please check if the Mola Mola Tambaqui requires a different I2S pin configuration. You can adjust the I2S output settings on the RS130 (e.g., LRCLK polarity, bit order) under Settings → Audio → I2S Output Settings.

  3. Windows Audio Output
    Verify that your Windows PC is outputting audio correctly through USB.
    Using ASIO drivers (for Foobar or JRiver) is recommended. Also, ensure that the output device is correctly selected as the RS130 USB audio input.

  4. Cable Compatibility
    Try a different USB cable and, if possible, another I2S cable to rule out hardware issues.

How exactly do I switch to USB input…?
I can only find that it’s possible to change output…

If you put a USB key/disc in one of the RS130’s USB ports, it will automatically find it.

I found that Foobar is discovering the Rose as “rose 97” , and it works playing music thru that connection. No other apps are able to though, unfortunately… Not even JRiver…
Is there any windows apps that allows windows 11 finding the rose ? :slight_smile:
