Your main problem appears that you are not waiting for the notifications from the HAL before blindly continuing your configuration code. Basically, you are assuming what you set actually took without actually making sure by waiting for the notifications from the HAL to finish shaking out. This is probably causing your configuration code to run while the HAL is still updating it's internal state, which is giving you an incoherent view of the device.

You should _never_ assume any call to change device configuration has succeeded successfully until you get _all_ the notifications. For an aggregate device, this can take a while given that there are many devices whose state is changing.

Thanks, this solved part of the problem, but we still have some weird behavior related to SR changes when using the AUHAL. Our code does the following scheme, so that is can be used with input, output, or duplex devices:
This works correctly when starting device with SR = 44100. As soon as using other SR (like 48, or 96 k that are supported by the devices) problems occurs:


- when application is started with 48k or 96k and input or output only device => distorded sound

- when application is started with 48k or 96k an duplex device ==> works OK

- when SR is changed externally (using AMS) ==> AUHAL audio callback not be called anymore

- when SR is changed externally (using AMS) ==> distorded sound

Basically is seems that the problems is in the "Setup stream converters" part. In some parameter choices we get error in AudioUnitSetProperty(fAUHAL, kAudioUnitProperty_StreamFormat, kAudioUnitScope_Output, 1, &dstFormat, sizeof(AudioStreamBasicDescription)); line but not always... and things still do not work, correctly even in the absence of errors..
