See posts #312 and #317 on this old thread from 2013:

Triode (and others) had identified the problem as an inherent limitation
of ARM SoC devices like the Cubox when used with full speed UAC devices.
It relates to the ehci hardware implementation on these ARM devices. 

So, I wouldn't expect a change from Volumio to SOA on your
Cubox/Dragonfly combo to alter the need for you to use a hub.  The
dragonfly's USB receiver chip  TAS1020B is another UAC 1 device. (

things should be OK.
