I'm running sdrtrunk v0.6.1 on my Intel MacBook Pro with an SDRPlay RSP1B plugged in to
a USB-A hub.
SDRConnect connects to the tuner unfailingly.
However, many/most times I run sdrtrunk it shows there is no tuner available.
The log shows that sdrtrunk discovers the tuner, then says "Unable to start RSP streaming - device may have been unplugged - removing."
I've attached the log.
Generally it will find the tuner if I restart sdrtrunk enough times.

David P suggested I try it without the USB hub, which I didn't do
originally because I lacked a handy USB-A/USB-C adapter.
A sensible idea. I found an adapter and tried it without a hub.
sdrtrunk connects every time. Strangely, when connected this way, my
comparison SDR software, SDRConnect, can't find the RSP1B. Since I'd
like to use both programs, I guess I'll live with the minor
inconvenience of having to run sdrtrunk a few times before it finds the SDR.
