Digital Interface and Click-Noise

Hi,

right now I´m using a M-Audio Transit USB/Toslink-Interface to feed the music output from MediaMonkey into my HiFi.

All in all this works fantastic with the exception of two little problems:

1. I am able to control the volume from the PC, this means the digital data gets "modified" somewhere. Is there a way to send the output of the MP3 as directly to the sound device as possible, avoiding any modification? Just output clean 44,1 kHz 16-Bit stereo from the MP3-files?

2. When an old track ends and a new one starts there is always an ugly "click" noise. I do not mean the "plop" from the windows-system-tray. It sounds as if the data-stream gets interrupted for a very short time or something like that. Does anybody know a way to avoid this? Digital silence shouldn't be that hard to create and that's exactly what would be needed there.

Any help is appreciated.

bye
Wolfgang

Okay, skip my second question. Switching over to the DirectSound output plugin fixed the crackle noises.
