Loweaul Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 I've heard about one strange issue these days in our Chinese Forum, it's about the detection of External USB-DAC. So one of the users said that When he try to plug a External USB-DAC in his cellphone, the phone detected it as a USB-DAC correctly, as well as in the other Music Player APP. But the Poweramp is not, Poweramp has detected it as a Other Output Devices, instead of a USB-DAC. As you can see in the image here. So he can't do any setup with USB-DAC in the option Hi-Res Output. But by the way he said that the issue only exists when the phone UI is MIUI, if the phone UI is Original Android, then the issue won't be existing. Poweramp version 955 and 957 Device Name Xiaomi 11 Ultra, Xiaomi 10 Ultra. MIUI 14 based on Android 13. and the USB-DAC is Meizu HiFi DAC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted April 24, 2023 Share Posted April 24, 2023 Sounds like a MIUI reporting issue. Poweramp relies on Android correctly reporting the available hardware, it does not detect or drive anything directly using custom code as far as I know. @maxmp might be able to comment further though.

Gershy13 Posted November 10, 2023 Share Posted November 10, 2023 I'm having this issue too, has there been any fixes or solution? Is there a way to bypass miui's audio detection and give Poweramp direct access to the dac? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted November 10, 2023 Share Posted November 10, 2023 @Gershy13 Not at present. Android must be able to detect a USB DAC and provide access for Poweramp to be able to use it. Andre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
