solved ! USBStreamer b on iPad 5 (2017, ios 10.33)

dear list,

i can't get my new USBStreamer b to run on my new iPad 5 (2017, ios 10.33).
i use the official apple usb3 lightning adapter and power adapter that came with the ipad.
so there are no complains about power or incompatible devices.
the USBStreamers white LED is on but no red toslink light and it doesn't grab the audio.
the whole setup works with an iPad pro (2016, ios 10.33).

any idea how i can get this to run ?

thank you

hi dave, thanks for answering.
I think you should have a red toslink light with just power.....ie, all the time.
it turned out to be a power issue. i thought the new usb3 lightning adapter would provide the minidsp with enough power. strangely it did with the older ipad pro but didn't with the new ipad 5 ?! now i provide the minidsp with power with an belkin usb2 hub and then plug it into the usb lightning adapter and the ipad. wait a few seconds and than it grabs the audio. ps.: i am not shure if i used an stronger power adapter with the ipad pro .
Are you sure it's still working with your older iPad Pro setup?
I would post your query over on the miniDSP tech forum.
i did and will update it with my solution. cheers
