duno if this is the right place to post regarding type-c to 3.5mm dongles
bought 2 recently, 1 by ATZ (probably a rebadge) and 1 by samsung (some "analong vietnam kdm40b U.S." markings)
ATZ sounds louder when used on Pixel 4a (has own 3.5) and Tab S6 (no 3.5).. but got noticeable white noise when playing. Plugged into PC no white noise
Samsung one sounds softer when plugged into the same two devices. Google Assistant options when plugged in to both. White noise floor is lower than the ATZ. Plugged into PC no white noise, but cannot play music properly like there is something music players on pc to auto toggle play/pause rapidly.
both appears locked at 16bit 44k when i checked through windows system menu, i see other people and their dongles can toggle different rates?
are USB-c dongles suppose to have some white noise floor? How come plug into PC the noise is gone?
My mobo is the MSI B450 Gaming Pro Carbon, seems to be advertised for the isolated pcb for audio portion. Didn't notice much change from cursory hearing through the dongle or MOBO, as was more concerned the noise from those dongles for phone and tablet use.
