I have just been in touch with Tidal support about a problem I have been having with iOS 18.1 when directly connected to an external DAC. This is a problem that affects all iOS 18.1 devices apparently. What happens is that the DAC will only get 16/44.1 no matter what the declared sound quality on the TIDAL app is. The problem only occurs when playing directly from an iOS18.1 device to an external DAC. Streaming, Roon, Tidal Connect etc. are not affected.
TIDAL is aware of the problem which has to do with bitrate handling in this OS version. The workaround is to download the file and play the downloaded version.
Just thought I'd let people know as I am sure there are some who stream in this way.
