The Touch and EDO can handle 176 quite nicely, so it is most likely your
DAC. For some reason 176 seems to not be supported in many DACs.
Recently I was testing out a very expensive DAC and everything worked
great except 176, it was highly distorted and inconsistent. I've seen
this sort of thing many times. The Touch was outputting the correct data
with the correct timing, but the circuitry inside the DAC was outputting
waveforms to the DAC chip that was right on the hairy edge of causing
timing errors -- JUST for 176! I guess nobody bothers to test 176. 

I've seen several recently that specifically say that 176 does not work,
period. I'm at a loss to understand why this is done. My guess is that
they have a working 44.1 -> 96 system, then add a 192, and just make it
able to do 192 and don't bother to add the extra 75 cents to make it
handle 176. 

Anyway, that's the way it is in many cases today.
