4. True plug’n’play operation with Linux


Linux has a native support for audio devices compliant with USB Audio Class 2.0 based on
ALSA. This means that the driver is already included in the operating system and the user
needs not to install anything: just connect the hiFace DAC to your PC with Linux and it will
be immediately recognized by the OS and ready to use. ALSA version needs to be 1.0.24
or later.
To use hiFace DAC as output device, select it as default output device for the system or for
the player you’re using.
