Default Why won't my BDP3 play with my Oppo205?

I have tried several times to get an answer to this question, but so far no joy. I want to use my Bryston into my Oppo via USB and from there into my SP3 via balanced cables, so I can use the full MQA capabilities of the Oppo I get no signal whatsoever.

Oppo, to their credit, at least responded. Crickets from anyone here on the Bryston threads. Oppo says the BDP3 probably doesn't have the proper drivers for the Oppo. Isn't USB USB? Can Bryston provide the drivers I need?

The Oppo has excellent DACs, and works as a Roon endpoint with full MQA decoding. I know MQA is controversial, but I have spent the money on the gear and I want to decide for myself.

Right now I have bypassed the BDP and am using an imac as my Roon core, and running the signal through the Oppo by ethernet, and then XLRs to the SP3. Sounds very good, but I want the full MQA experience, then I can decide for myself where to go from there. If I can use the BDP in the chain, I'll keep it. Otherwise it's just a very expensive brick.

Thanks to anyone who can help.
