Caldigit front audio port not working

Anyone getting this problem?

Plugged in headphones and all I can hear is some pulsing sound. Quiet pulsing sound.

The Sound drop down menu on the top of the screen has TS4 grey out. TS4 sound doesn't appear as an output in Settings -> Sound.

If I plug in the same headphones to the back of the dock, it works fine.

Plugging it into Mac Mini's front audio jack works fine.

Any clues?

EDIT - nevermind! unplugging the power and on again fixed it!

Must have been a bug...good old reset fixed it.

It's worth making sure you've got the necessary 'drivers' and the firmware is the latest - https://downloads.caldigit.com

Edit - As for the other dock/TS4 thread, currently only TS4 drivers/firmware exists; the T4PD/Apple 'special' is yet to have any firmware/driver updates.
