Anyone else having problems with USB speakers?

[Thepixelsedge]

Since upgrading my 2011 iMac to El Capitan, my USB connected speakers sometimes just don't work. If I restart my computer they will work for a bit but as soon as the computer goes to sleep for around an hour or so the speakers no longer work. Very frustrating having to restart a few times a day just to have music to work to.

Anyone else having this problem? Anyone find a fix?

Take care!

They are uFI uCube speakers... To my knowledge there is no driver needed. I have rebooted and each time the speakers will work for a while until I allow the Mac to go to sleep. If i allow it to sleep long enough to require my password (20min) then the speakers don't work anymore when I wake up the Mac and the only way I've found to get them working again is to reboot the computer.
