Mini86 pauses 2 seconds every 2 minutes during playing DSD

Help and Support Help

This is Kokon from China.
Just bought a second hand Volumio Mini86(2G version), I found the music paused 2 seconds every 2 minutes during playing dsd files by connecting to Benchmark DAC2. Files are saved in a USB SSD, while the speed of this disk is perfect in Windows.
I have updated the system to latest version and set the buffer to 12M and 40%.
Please advise how to fix this problem.
Thanks.

While I changed the DAC to a different one, this problem was fixed, so the root cause is the Benchmark DAC. Also checked the DAC’s website, found there is a new firmware will address this problem.
NEW FEATURES IN VERSION 2.3 & 2.4:
EEPROM setting storage is now fully redundant to prevent data loss and data corruption.
The topic can be closed now.
