Well you are the first that have the same settings on left and right… right should be 24/44 since your dac is 24bits. I’ll let Damien answer that :grinning:

Also since your dac doesnt do dsd it should be set as convert to pcm not dsd over pcm 1.0

You are referring to the NP5 Prisma/SP22 which supports up to 24/192. On this system I listen to music files up to 24/192 and it’s OK.
The Naim DAC V-1 supports up to DSD 128.

Hello @Primare, I am wondering, does the tracks in the album have different sample rates?

No, all the tracks are with the same bit rate.
But when I create a playlist with different tracks/bit rates if there is a DSD one I hear very strong noise before playing the DSD one.

Hello @Primare, Have you tried to reproduce your issue with a more recent update of Audirvana (the latest is 3.5.40)? Can you update your Audirvana?

Hello Damien,
No, I didn’t.
For a 3-4 years several times after updates I faced major problems with Audirvana. Few times with the self muting as the title of the thread. So I make updates only when I can’t play music at all (have a dedicated Mac Mini running only Audirvana. There are no other programs on this computer and I do not make changes in the settings. I avoid Apple updates as well. I don’t think that the Mac MINI is problematic because all the Mini’s resources are dedicated to Audirvana only. Mac MINI is switched on 24/7).
So far I have no problem with Naim DAC V-1.
The problems are with Primare NP5 Prisma which I don’t consider normal and I hope that somebody can offer a solution. I wrote to Primare as well. Still nothing. I do think that the issue is with Audirvana because the player stops to play tracks. Somehow the player is falling asleep.

My music mutes at 1:41 mark as well. I have a Macbook High Sierra 10.13.6 connected to an external DAC (Topping D70). I had the same issue when I tried it on my other DAC (Topping D50). The music remains muted even after I change the track or select a new album. It starts playing only after I close the application and select a new album. I have tried playing songs at different bit-rates and resolutions with both Tidal and Qobuz. I played around with playback options by changing the max. memory allocation option. The problem still persists. I am running 3.5.44 of the software.

After several months without facing this problem (muting after 1-2 minutes) yesterday it came back. Without making any changes - software or hardware. Just like this. So I checked for updates and there was one. I have updated the Audirvana+ and restarted the MacMini. The problem was solved. How long - nobody knows. This problem is very frustrating and constant unfortunately.
In the past when the update is not helping I was deleting completely Audirvana application and launch it again. In this case any playlist created is gone. Additionally any changes in the files (only pictures in my case) are forgotten as well. You have to make them again.
Still have a problem with proper streaming to another DAC over WiFi…

Hello Damien
I have the same problem after 2:05.
I never had this kind of problem before , I just left in standby my Mac one week and Audirvana was open…
now with my Naim Dac V1 I have this problem.
Can you help me?

Self muting about 20mins, then reducing to 5 mins maybe. I have to restart mini mac to reset

4gb of ram… try to turn OFF upsampling, you’ll get better chance :slight_smile:

Also when you open the Debug window… all the text inside is already copied to your Mac… you just have to come here and reply with: command v on the keyboard (cmd v)
