Hello,
I own a Focusrite Saffire 6 USB device for a time now but recently I have purchased a set of Razer Megalodons (USB) for gaming. The main purpose of this is to listen to music via SAffire to my speakers and with my headphones the ventrio client. (i had this setup before but with an internal Creative X-Fi as the music source). The problem is, the Razers don't play anything while the Saffire is connected and foobar and other players give errors. I also have a pair of Plantronics USB headset, which I tested with, the same problem. First I thought that I can't have 2 audio USB devices at the same time, so I've removed the Saffire and plugged the 2 USB headsets...both of them work perfectly.
I've also asked a friend to bring his M-Audio FW410 (firewire) to test it with and again, i works flawlesly in combination with any USB device. So my conclusion is, evidently that Saffire doesn't like anything USB audio plugged in. I have the latest drivers installed..and this is the point where I can't know what else should I do. I can't afford to buy another external device..and selling the Saffire then buying another is a hassle. If any of you had this problem before and fixed it...please, let me know how to proceed.
Tnx in advance
