Followed start guide. Appeared to install fine.
Playing music from a dell latitude d620
When I play FLAC through Foobar2000 there are lots of stuttering gaps, even when I increase the buffer to ~2 seconds.
When I stream NPR from the npr.org site it does not play through the sirocco but still is heard through the laptop's speakers. This happens at the same time foobar is playing through the sirocco. Sound is being fed to two different sound cards.
Two more questions that are not necessarily problems...
Any future support for higher 24/96 files?
Is it possible to use a sirocco with a computer that has only wireless LAN if the sirocco has been added to the network using a different computer? (I have another laptop with a broken LAN port that I would like to use).
Hoping this thing will work without too much fuss. I'm willing to work at it a bit but I'm not interested in any wild goose chasing.

Hi Thor, For the npr
Hi Thor,
For the npr streaming issue, simply close and re-open your browser. It sounds like the browser was open before connecting to the Sirocco, which is causing it to feed audio to the onboard sound.
No 24/96 support at this time (I can't really say if it will be added later).
And the Sirocco can be used from any number of computers on the network. You can install the driver software on as many PCs as you wish, and they will all be able to connect to it if they're on the same network.
