Crackling/Sparkling Noise on Poweramp Bit Perfect with JA11 + Truthear Pure (Nothing Phone 3A)
Hey everyone, Running into a sparkling/crackling noise issue on Poweramp with my JadeAudio JA11 DAC into Truthear Pures (Nothing Phone 3A). It happens on both native DSD files and FLACs, using Bit Perfect / USB Exclusive output. I've toggled the USB DAC PCM/DSD Warmups and Sample Rate Quirk settings and tried switching output drivers to AAudio, but the crackling persists. Apple Music on a Mac /my phone with the same DAC plays completely clean, so it seems isolated to Poweramp specifically, possibly related to the new Bit Perfect feature. Attaching a screenshot of the audio pipeline showing the active flags during playback. Anyone else seeing this with a JA11 or similar dongle DAC?
