Playing Spotify desktop app on PC through the WDM driver to JRiver randomly switches to white noise at extremely high volume likely to damage my expensive speakers. I see people have had problems with DSD streaming and similar loud white noise but can't find anything on WDM.

It occurs randomly while music is playing and will not stop until MC process is killed.

JRiver is configured for ASIO4ALL async usb output to DAC but I do not get this problem unless JRiver is being fed via WDM driver so it is something about that route. I have set internals

Source driver is set to 192k 24bit 2ch and internal is set to 192k 64bit 2ch.

Don't use ASIO4All.  It's just a wrapper for Kernel Streaming.  If your DAC has an ASIO driver, use it, or use WASAPI or DirectSound.

What is the DAC?  What happens if you remove the power and replace it when the problem occurs.

I don't believe this is an MC problem.

     I have this same problem "White noise burst" in between music video's with random play.  Very random and not all the time. Using ASIO This has been happening for a long time.

Try increasing the buffer size in WDM.
