Nice update/feature addition to 14955
 
USB Audio 2.0 devices are now named based on the make/model of the device, rather than using a generic name, in places across the system, for example Device Manager.

So, when are these updates coming as updates for regular Window 10?

  So, when are these updates coming as updates for regular Window 10?

All of these updates will be coming to the main branch of Windows 10 in Q1 2017 in their recently announced "Creators Update" or "Windows 10 CU" for short.

Well, I finally got my Xduoo XD-05 and it does detect with my stock 950 xl with the latest stable build, but it gives me a message saying that this device needs to be plugged in to a PC.
 
No external screen is available and audio plays out of the internal speaker.
 
I guess no mobile DAC for a few months...
 
Am I right to assume that Windows 10 CU will also be for mobile and be able to support USB Audio Class 2?

​Insider build does support USB 2.0 driver. I have had a Burson Air Conductor connected on build 14946 and newer

That requires me to use the Windows Insider, right?
 
Have you experienced many stability issues?
 
I did not have the best results with my last phone and the Windows 8.1 Developer Preview.

Due to the creation of UWP you would be correct to assume that Windows 10 CU will be coming to mobile devices, however, I am not sure if the USB 2 Audio driver will be included on the mobile release.

The USB 2.0 audio driver included in the preview build doesn't work with Yggdrasil.
I get a code 10 error when trying to update driver

That would probably be because the Yggy uses that special "Gen 3" USB module. Even Schiit had to prepare special drivers for it apart from their normal set of "Gen 2" USB drivers. I wouldn't be surprised if the Yggy incorporates some proprietary USB chip that a generic USB 2.0 driver just doesn't recognize.

Why would the hardware be the cause? It's recognized by windows, but is unable to start (code 10).
Reported to feedback hub.

Jason Stoddard would you be able to shed some light here?
Should the long awaited native USB 2.0 support in win10 work with Yggdrasil or is Gen3 driver end-of-the-road as far as USB drivers go?

Thanks.

My "insider" version 1607 Build 14971.1000 runs fine with an Yggy after I completely remove all Schiit Drivers.
 
Given the non-release nature of the "insider" versions of Windoze, we cannot support these releases at Schiit until Microsoft catches up with all other OSes, officially supporting USB2 audio.

That's great news Baldr I got 14971 pushed to me last night so will try later today.
My initial test was done on 14965.

I heard 2017 Q1 as official release of USB audio 2.0.

Nope still won't start here with 14971 running. All C-Media stuff cleaned up, reboots and recycle multiple times. I'm refreshing device manager and "Schiit Audio Gen 3 USB" shows up with !-sign and not running, despite the new native driver being installed.
