Sounds like you have a much larger underlying problem with either the computer or the cable used to connect the devices. Do other USB devices work properly on the same USB ports that the Schiit DACs aren't working on?
I have only the Modi and Bifrost now. Initially I thought the Bifrost shouldn't have any issues since it's a powered unit but then connection was intermittent at best. Signals kept dropping. Works fine now with the external hub. Nick of Schiit Tech support did mention that i would face this problem with the Bifrost since it wouldn't work with the Modi at all. Having said that, i noticed with a Supra USB cable, the Mac could detect the Modi intermittently as opposed to using the Audioquest Cinnamon USB cable where no detection was noted at all. I suppose cable construction matters as well?
