Schiit DAC Crashes Audirvana

I've tested this on my Mac Mini and Mac Laptop and while Audirvana works fine with other DACs, when I try and run it with the Schiit Gungnir Multibit DAC I recently purchased it crashes Audirvana, every time.

Whoops!

Suggestions on similarly priced and performing DACs that work with Audirvana?

I'm glad Schiit finally got back to you.  I've got the Bifrost Multibit, and it makes crappy mp3 files sound better than I've ever heard them.  I expect the Gumby (Schiit gearhead lingo for Gungnir Multibit) would sound even better at 18 bits.

@213runnin, 
Yes, the Gungy will smoke the Bifrost. I have the non multibit version. I am amazed at the improvement, as I thought it couldn't get better.

I just got the Modi 2 Multibit. I am really impressed with it for $250.00. Maybe I should entertain going up a couple of levels to the Gungnir vanilla version if it's that good.
