Just as an observation - (Clarification this is on and X299 Dark MB, just using the onboard sound - no other add in devices with added USB ports) I looked at what I had listed for my system for USB controllers - just have the 1 ASMedia on the motherboard and an Intel one I compared the driver details (sorry I didn't bother to take screen shots) between the two - both used the same MS driver version 3.1 dated Just for the hell of it I right clicked on the ASMedia driver and told it to check for updated drivers - it changed the driver, now it is the 1.16.38.Everything related to HP's VR headsets. Maybe the subsequent EVGA driver package can enforce this version of the ASMedia USB controller drivers. I hope this helps others experiencing the same issue. Will report back if I start getting stutter again. The version found by Microsoft was 1.16.38.1, dated August 2016, but in the hour of testing all audio sources since changing the ASMedia USB controller drivers to the older Microsoft version, I've had zero audio dropout or stutter. This "updated" driver turned out to be an older version of the driver than was installed with my card. I manually "updated" each of the default ASMedia drivers in Device manager using Update Driver -> Search automatically for updated driver software, and picked the one found by Windows for all three ASMedia controller entries. My troubleshooting found no excess delayed procedure calls, and LatencyMon believed my system should have no problems playing realtime audio, but my sound signal was still dropping randomly. I experienced intermittent sound choppiness and dropout during music playback from all sources - Youtube in Chrome, Soundcloud in Brave, MP3 and FLAC in Winamp through both the DirectSound and WaveOut outputs.

ASMedia USB3.0 eXtensible Host Controller - ASMedia USB3.0 eXtensible Host Controller - ASMedia USB3.1 eXtensible Host Controller The initial versions of these drivers installed during my card install were dated September 2018. These three probably will show up in your Device Manager under USB Controllers.

I believe the EVGA driver package installs drivers for the following USB interfaces present on the Nu Audio card in the 0.1.1 EVGA driver dated.
