Hi there!
So currently I have the FiiO M11 Plus and it is nearly the perfect device for me. The only problem with it is that it has an annoying audio delay when used in USB DAC mode so I can't use it when gaming and it looks like it's a long time issue that FiiO knows about but hasn't managed to fix for ages. Are there any known DAPs that don't have this annoying audio lag at around a similar price and performance to the M11 Plus?

You won’t find any Android DAPs with zero latency. It’s a limitation of the Android OS, lowest it goes is 20ms which is not suitable for gaming.

Just buy a dedicated DAC/AMP for PC/PS5. Even a cheap one like the IFI Zen DAC will perform much better than any DAP used as a DAC.
