MOTU UltraLite-mk3 popping when used as a digital interface

[Zylvian]

Hi again, people!

I am attempting to use the Mk3 as the main recording hub in my studio, and thus use it for inputs/outputs, as well as driving Ableton Live Suite 11.
However, when digital monitoring is used, a very frequent and loud popping noise can be heard. It sounds almost like a vinyl crackle.

I am on Windows 10 and have both factory reset as well as re-upgraded the firmware on the interface. The MOTU Drivers were re-installed 30 minutes before this post. The sample rate doesn't seem to matter with the frequency, but in order to be usable for a booth setting, I currently have it set to 128 samples/44.1kHz sample rate. The USB B cable used is a fresh one that's going straight to my motherboard. I have tried swapping outlets and power supplies, but it seems the issue is inherently digital, as it only ever kicks in when I'm monitoring through Ableton.

Here are two gifs of the Cuemix FX output:

At it's worst:

More regularly:

Bonus issue:
I am also only ever able to open MOTU Audio Console in the first 30 seconds of rebooting my PC, after which it becomes unopenable. I've tried to change the security settings of the program, but it won't open neither from my desktop nor through Ableton's "Hardware Setup" function.

Thread bump, as issue still remains.

Has anybody else had this issue?

Want to use my Motu to do a set with Ableton live, and need it at 128 samples for accuracy. The crackling is still present and intense.

Have you reached out to MOTU directly? Might want to get a TechLink going at MOTU.com.
