How to cure ASUS XONAR DX?

Question

Iron

There is this sound card, for reasons completely incomprehensible to me, it behaves very strangely:
1. Sometimes it does not "start" when you start the computer, the relays click, but there is no sound.
2. If you turn on the game, then after about a minute the relays click and the sound disappears.
At the same time, everything seems to be in order with the drivers, Windows detects them normally.
I tried to install the UniXonar drivers, the picture is the same.
What could be the problem?
PS I heard that strong heat can somehow affect the card. Now drove the video card - everything is normal.

Answer 1

The only way out is to sell. This card has a hardware issue.
3 years of suffering with her. The right channel was periodically turned off, it was treated only by rebooting the PC.
Now I'm using SMSL Sanskrit with ops replaced.
