Certain optical digital audio source sample rates may not work for some Intel-based Macs
When connected to the optical digital audio input, 32 kHz (kilohertz) and 88.2 kHz audio input sample rates may not work on Intel-based Macintosh computers. The audio may be damaged or non-existent.
Using sample rates of 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz, or 96 kHz when connected to the optical digital audio input may correct this condition.
