The driver has been uninstalled and reinstalled, no change. I don't plan to reinstall Windows to see if that fixes it. I'm not sure if that's because the CPU was newer and more powerful back then, or if there's been some sort of driver corruption or driver bloat over time somehow, or what. I never had these issues on the first installation. Reaper appears to 'steal' the audio from other applications however.įurther information: This is the second installation of Windows I've done on this hardware, after I got a new SSD a few years ago. Youtube and Foobar2000 can play at the same time.

Bringing FF back into focus will not restart audio, unless I move the seek bar back somewhat. Youtube will play with audio until I bring Reaper into focus. Annoyingly, even if I close Reaper, FF will not resume audio without a powercycle of the Axe IO.Įdit: after restarting the computer, this is almost working. If I start Reaper with Firefox playing audio, Firefox will stop. I can't, apparently, get audio from Firefox/youtube AND Reaper at the same time, despite having disabled Exclusive Audio in Windows' settings. Reducing sample rate to 44.1 and buffer to 128 helps but does not eliminate the issue Powercycling the interface and restarting whatever audio service will usually pause the issue temporarily. No information was gathered.Īudio craps out - it sounds like a bitcrusher has been applied and ramped down to 4 or 2 bits, and shortly after that audio will stop completely. Unit is out of warranty, and while the agent at IK Multimedia didn't tell me to get lost, they were also fairly useless at troubleshooting. Driver software is up to date: firmware 1.10 driver 5.30
