Hi there,
I've connected my G6 via usb to the Macbook. It recognises the device, and I have changed the audio output to the G6 in MacOS. So far, so good.
However, I'm not sure if my macbook is actually "using" the dac inside the G6 because I'm able to adjust the volume with the macbook touchbar as if it was using the normal internal soundcard. If I use the volume knob on the g6, it also shows the volume changing on the mac.
My old Dac/Amp would grey out and disable the volume controls on the macbook and only alllow me to control the volume using the dac itself. Which is the right behaviour.
Why is this not the case with the G6? Anyone else with similar experiences?
