# FiiO BTR3 USB Linux Workaround
Workaround to get FiiO BTR3's USB mode work in Linux

As of Linux 4.20.5, this device won't work on 44100 sample rate, only 48000 works.

### Pulseaudio howto
For most users, just append these lines to `/etc/pulse/daemon.conf`:

```
 default-sample-rate = 192000
 alternate-sample-rate = 48000
```

Explaination:

Nowdays most built-in sound cards support 192kHz sample rate, so we set `default-sample-rate` to `192000`.

When any of our sound devices doesn't support 192kHz, we want it to fallback to 48kHz (supported since AC97). So we set `alternate-sample-rate` to `48000`.

In this way, pulseaudio will only use either 192kHz or 48kHz. This solves the problem.

### ALSA howto
Configure your software to use 48000 sample rate.

### Appendix
`# cat /proc/asound/BTR3/stream0`
