Xone23C Mac OS Tahoe Playback speed issue

MacBook Pro M3 Pro Laptop running latest Mac OS Tahoe 26.0.1 connected via USB to the Xone:23c mixer….

Only just noticed this but the playback speed of audio is slowed down somewhat. I noticed that YouTube video clips were going out of sync and then when editing audio files, it would play a second slower. I could hear vocals and notes being pitched down a tad.

Anyone else noticed this? I’ve since abandoned connecting it via USB and instead am playing back via the headphone jack to phono…
