Wow, that's pretty strange. Needless to say, DSD's run just fine through my DAC-2 DSD/Taboo. Really weird.
It's weird beyond my technical understanding. I am listening to DSD files right now, using TEAC DSD player which put the TEAC in direct DSD mode, not play through PCM like in foobar and my $200 Emotiva sounds 100% perfect. Unplug RCA and plug it into taboo with everything exactly the same will = loud static noise beyond comprehension.
Also, remember that a lot of player converts DSD files to high rate files and play it over PCM. Please check if your DAC is in true/direct DSD mode or it's just processing a super high rate PCM.
