User level: Level 1 (1 points)I have a Macbook M4 running Tahoe 26.6.2 connected to a Fiio X9 DAC via USC-C to USB-B. But whenever I start playing a sound (eg Youtube) it delays and doesn't play until a second or 2 in. This does not happen with the internal speakers.

Sounds like an issue for your third party Fiio X9 DAC to sort out...
For your third party app—
if in doubt search the developers website or contact their: Support/Help/FAQ/Known issues/compatibility/updates
