Millisecond delay to the beginning of songs streaming

I had this problem with my Sony 5400 disc player. It was some kind of protocol problem with HDMI. 

This is not an uncommon problem.  I’ve struggled with it for ages.  I can’t tell if it’s my streamer (IanCanada Transport II with Gentoolplayer OS), or Audirvana, or Qobuz, or what.  It’s extremely annoying.  I think it boils down to the streamer.  But I do not have an answer to offer.

Don’t know eversolo…but If you’re using internal DAC, is there a setting to disable sample rate conversion? Set sample rate to maximum sample rate of your streaming service. If there’s a delay setting for sample rate try playing with different values…increase it and see if your issue is resolved  

Thanks All for the replies! Reached out to Eversolo and got this reply:

Hi Brian,

Thank you for your email.
 

Regarding your inquiry, actually this is a normal phenomenon. 
When connected to the backend device via a digital port, the external DAC needs to relock the sampling rate and establish USB audio synchronization when switching tracks, there will be a brief silence for the first few seconds to prevent popping sounds. 

Thanks for your understanding.

If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

Best regards.

Now I have the exact same setup with my Bluesound Icon (except using Gustard DDC And DAC, as opposed to using DENAFRIPS DDC and DAC with the Eversolo) and there is no delay…So that’s weird..Sucks but apparently that’s normal for Eversolo😞. 
 

I can’t help but wonder if the new Eversolo T8 does this???

I have the same issue with my Roon Nucleus Plus to Playback Designs MPD – 8 running Qobuz. 
A quick Internet search reveals this happens on Spotify and Apple Music as well.
