Have you tried different length coax cables? If there are impedance mismatches, (which are extremely likely in most setups) reflections happen, if the cable lengths are "right" those reflections can mess up the reception of the data. The cable length to cause the problem will vary with sample rate. When trying different cable lengths don't use 2x or 1/2x, for example if your cable is 1m try a 1.5m not a 2m, or a 0.75m not a 0.5m.
