### WiFi adapter running in power-saving / low-power mode
**Problem**
- Quirky USB DACs (already known to be problematic on the Raspberry Pi more info available [here](https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/hardware/raspberrypi/usb/README.md#knownissues)
For more discussion on this issue see [issue 167](https://github.com/mikebrady/shairport-sync/issues/167) or read on for the quick fix!
-**Solution**
+**Possible Solution**
To get nice smooth audio first check the details of your USB DAC by either using 'aplay -l' which will give you output something like this:
````
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
This will then be used by default by Shairport-Sync and any other applications using alsa.
-Note that some distributions (such as Volumio 2) don't use an asound.conf file by default, they instead specificy the hardware details directly in '/etc/shairport-sync.conf' and '/etc/mpd.conf' files so some more in depth modification is needed to override this.
