Humming noise from output jacks (and input jacks); Toneport UX8

Hello folks,
i tried to reamp something with the UX8 which seems to fail already at its output jacks (even the input jacks).
I allready searched on google for about two hours with no compareable result. So here goes my Problem:
No matter how i configure the chain of gear or route the signal to the outputs, the output jacks (or input jacks) add an unbearable ammount of a humming noise to the signal ( I dont have to play something through the output, connecting one of them to my amp or effect-pedal already creates the noise).
The only thing that doesn't seem to be affected by the noise is a mono headphone which came with an old metronome and which i plugged in the outputs for the purpose of testing.
I even tried connecting the toneport-input to the amp-input -> same result: horrible noise comes from the amp.
So naturally i would go with a grounding issue; but i belive i rouled that out by adding the ground connector of my pc to the jacks / to the case -> no change.
I also assume the cables to be fine since i never had any problem with them and tried 3 diffrent cables.
Chain of Gear:
Toneport-output -> Amp-input >>>[UNBEARABLE NOISE]>>> (-> sm57 ->toneport-XLRinput)
OR
Toneport_output ->podhd500_4cable-method -> Amp >>>[UNBEARABLE NOISE]>>> (-> sm57 ->toneport-XLRinput)
What could it be? And how can i resolve it?
Greetings and thanks upfront,
