I've always used a mini external USB audio amplifier hooked to my headphones as a workaround to get better audio instead of having to root my Galaxy Note 8 and relying on ViPER4Android for that. It's been working great up until I installed the most recent update Samsung update N950FXXU3CRE5.

The OS detects the USB audio amplifier and shows that audio is being routed to it, but the USB audio device is not initialized and there is no audio output from it at all. The only time the USB audio amp actually works is when I use USB Audio Player PRO to initialize the device, then it plays my audio files but only through this app. Outside the app, nothing works. No matter what settings I change, the USB Audio device only works if it's initialized through the USB Audio Player PRO. This was never the case before the most recent Samsung update.

I'm wondering if others are experiencing similar issues and if there is a workaround for it.

Thanks.

The same update broke a few things for me too. A factory reset fixed them all.

Hey there

I am having same issues and same results.
I tried a factory reset, but that didnt do the trick.

I have a S10+ and rescently got a firmware update. After this update , when i boot my Axefx3 (multifx processor) my usb playback is times 2 (double the speed) like toutube videos or audio playback.
Allso the axefx doesnt route the sound to my headphone. The midi out us detected and selected , but no luck.

Did you manage to solve your problem?

Regards
