Was @KSTR running Windows and using the Foobar2000 ASIO Component? If not, his experience not may be applicable. Moreover, you have never in your life seen any software with intermittent bugs?
Bottom line is Foobar2000 was set for no volume reduction and no Foobar2000 DSP was in use, and there was a distortion. The mere act of switching to PlayPCMWin immediately stopped the distortion. I don't want that problem to happen again, so I will stick with what has proven to be the more reliable solution.
With that, I will leave off here. Someone else is welcome to have the last word.

Win10 with ASIO. Don't remember which version of Foobar2000 but most likely an older one as I'm not an update junkie.
My experience tells me there is always distortion in the system. It’s inevitable. Even when you go to great lengths to eliminate it. Anyone else notice as you turn the volume up, past low level, into moderately high levels the distirtion gets quite noticeable, high in fact. So much so you’re inclined to turn it back down.

You better had written that once, you had an undefined issue with Foobar. Simple as that.
