Using Digrig Mobile with Elecraft KX2 and iFTX on iOS

Has anyone used the Digirig Mobile with an Elecraft KX2 or KX3 using the iFTX app on iOS (iphone/ipad)? If so, what settings are you using on the radios to make this work? I’ve tried multiple settings and can’t get it to work. Any help would be appreciated.

All, with some help from Kevin, AI5SM, I was able to get my Digirig working with my KX2 and my iPhone and iPad using iFTx. For those who might be interested, here are some detailed notes:

This setup uses VOX and not PTT.

Connect Digirig to iPhone/iPad using USB-C (or USB-C to Lightning for older phones/ipads) cable. From the Digirig, connect the green lead to the Phones connector, and the red lead to the Mic connector on the KX2/KX3.

iPhone/iPad Settings:

Settings → Sounds & Haptics → Headphone Safety:
USB Audio Accessories → Forget All USB Audio Accessories
Connect Digirig to USB-C or Lightning on iPhone/iPad
