Eversolo T8 USB transfer rate issue.

I have installed an Eversolo T8 streamer, and have an issue, has anyone else seen this problem ad/or what am I missing.

If I use the USB to DAC output the frequency is limited to 48 kHz.

There is a setting for "EOS", use original speed, but that does not affect the transfer rate, it is stuck at 48 kHz.  On models other than the T8 there is a menu option to use the original bit rate, but I cannot find it!  

24/192 is fine on Coax.

Can anyone help?

A further note for anyone purchasing this device, if you are going to install an SSD and copy music files onto it using your computer (at least for Windows, I know not about macos) you MUST format the SSD as NTFS or it will not show up as a shere.

Internet reviewer "Passion for Sound" had some issues also. Around 11:30 mark on the video.

I was interested in the streamer but may wait it out until if and when all these bugs are sorted out.  Hope your issues with USB gets fixed.  That's what I would be using as well.

When there is a new model we are all beta testers for at least the first few months or more.

I also recently bought the T8, and this is not a bug but rather a setting. I happen to use Qobuz connected to USB, and this is how I resolved this issue: While a song is in progress, tap on the stream rate status area (outlined in gold). This brings up a screen that the allows you to select maximum stream rate. Simply tap 24/192, and you should be good to go.
