My configuration uses a 48Khz sample rate exclusively and Windows 10 appears to recognize the UAC2 device properly with all of Ruslan's patches. I have not done any serious testing at the 44.1KHz rate so I don't recall if that is recognized correctly on my Windows 10 box. It looks like you've established a UAC2 loopback on your target board. How are you verifying the captured audio on the Window 10 PC? I didn't realize Windows Media Player allows you to both playback and capture from the same (UAC2) device simultaneously. Thanks, Glenn
