UMik-2 ASIO Config Issues - Windows 11

OS: Windows 11
Audiolense XO
Dac: Holo May KTE ASIO

I recently took the opportunity to buy the UMIK-2 in hopes of using ASIO, but for some reason I am unable to select ASIO for Umik-2 input coupled with ASIO for Holo May output. It works if I use ASIO4ALL on both sides, or WASAPI for input and ASIO for output. I would of course prefer to use the native drivers instead of the ASIO4All wrapper or use WASAPI. Sample rate is 48k, 24 bit on both sides. All configurations seems valid. Any thoughts appreciated. I am sure I am missing something. I have installed the minidsp drivers, updated firmware, etc. Registry seems fine. Appreciate your thoughts and input.

ASIO is limited to one device at a time in windows?

^ Yes that’s correct.

I’d check if the UMIK-2 ASIO driver can actually run alongside another ASIO device. Some ASIO drivers don’t allow multiple independent devices at the same time, which is why ASIO4ALL works as a wrapper.
You could also try setting both devices to the same clock/sample rate in Windows and disable any exclusive mode conflicts. If WASAPI input + Holo ASIO works, the hardware is probably fine and it’s likely a driver limitation.
