I have the same interface and I also hear the "hiss" though for me it's
more of a "capacitor hum". I've only ever used it with linux so I can't
say if it goes away on any other OS. The sound does become quite after
a while (perhaps when the components warm). IIRC I've heard of the same
experience from other UA-25 owners, sorry I can't be of more help. It's
a pretty easy unit to take apart, if you're very curious you might be
able to track down exactly what part is humming and contact the edirol
for information.
