Hi,
mac mini, os x 10,7,3 (lion). Eden release.

Before upgrade to eden i could run XBMC audio in any sampling rate, any bit (16 or 24) to my
NAD M51 USB Dac. now XBMC only outputs audio to the small analog speaker in the mac mini.
have tried all the settings, all variants of sampling rates and bit depths, have found some info about manually adding the sound device in the config file guisettings.xml but its very poorly documented on what one could and should do.
The dac doesnt have a driver it runs directly with Mac OS X.

Besides XBMC all sound applications, system sounds, Spotify, Youtube etc works as expected.

so what should be done to make XBMC output its sound to my DAC again?
