Re: teac UD-H01, bad 24 bit playback

Dear all, 

I'm not making much progress, didn't find any way to get 24 bit
resolution working properly on this hardware (TEAC UD-H01). The only
indication as to what might be going wrong comes from dmesg:

[  253.703096] ALSA sound/usb/pcm.c:1463 delay: estimated 0, actual 182
[  255.144077] ALSA sound/usb/pcm.c:1463 delay: estimated 0, actual 182
[  255.184079] ALSA sound/usb/pcm.c:1463 delay: estimated 0, actual 183

(when playing 88.2/24). I didn't see any of this on a 24bits, 96kHz
file, but the cracking is the same. 

Another warning message (when loading the driver): 

Dec 26 14:22:37 polyphemus kernel: [    2.135461] usb 3-2: new
high-speed USB device number 2 using xhci_hcd
Dec 26 14:22:37 polyphemus kernel: [    2.149885] usb 3-2: config 1 has
an invalid interface number: 3 but max is 2
Dec 26 14:22:37 polyphemus kernel: [    2.149890] usb 3-2: config 1 has
an invalid interface number: 3 but max is 2
Dec 26 14:22:37 polyphemus kernel: [    2.149892] usb 3-2: config 1 has
an invalid interface number: 3 but max is 2
Dec 26 14:22:37 polyphemus kernel: [    2.149893] usb 3-2: config 1 has
no interface number 1

But the device still works fine in 16bits mode.
