I use a DAC connected to Pulsar via USB.
Everything has been fine until today when the Pulsar is not connecting to the DAC
the DAC is listed in settings-Audio
I can navigate through my library that is on my NAS.
I've replaced the USB cable and power cycles the DAC and Pulsar
I guess it would be valuable to determine is the DAC USB works
Anyone know if I can connect my IMAC to the DAC and test the USB that way?
I am able to play my TV through the DACS optical connection.
I guess determining if this is a Pulsar problem or a DAC problem would be valuable. I'm just not sure how to do that
Any ideas?
Thank you

You can use the same USB cable to connect your Mac to the DAC, just to double check the USB input on the DAC is still working...

On Sense app, you can try going to Advanced Settings and Clear Queue Cache to see if this helps.
