more info. it is only the WASAPI driver with JRiver that causes it. direct sound does not.  this is the audioquest dragonfly mk2

WASAPI has two modes.  Toggle "Event Style".

Your machine is a little weak.  Run a benchmark under Help and paste the result here.

Thanks.  Did you try both settings for WASAPI?

Try Direct Sound.

Try no DSP.

Try another USB port.

Did you try the option for "Disable Event Style" in the WASAPI settings? It can help with some "picky" audio devices.
