Hi all, I'm having a very frustrating issue configuring XBMC. Simply put, selecting the DirectSound Speakers option for Audio Output Device doesn't work. I get no sound. I get sound just fine if I just WASAPI Speakers, but I don't want XBMC to take exclusive control of my sound card. Other DirectSound applications play just fine on the DirectSound Speakers device. Do I have something set incorrectly? My understanding is that there shouldn't be any other settings that need changed when using DirectSound, so what gives?
--------
Audio Output: Analog
Speaker Configuration: 2.0
Boost volume level on downmix: YES
Output stereo to all speakers: YES
Audio Output Device: DirectSound: Speakers - Speakers (ASUS Xonar DG Audio Device)
Play GUI sounds: Only when playback stopped
---------
Edit: Videos stutter big time with DirectSound Speakers set for audio also. Something bizarre is going on under this program's hood. Can someone shed some light on what?
