That is for wasapi in system settings/audio and the first option. Wasapi for passthrough works if its enabled. But the first audio option must be set to directsound for stream to work. This is in xbmc 13 gotham.
Other video plugins works with wasapi enabled in both options.
Anyone that can test if you expirience the same problem?
I have had problems with Wasapi before in combination with other programs. I had trouble with Emulators either crashing or missing sound, when wasapi was activated. The thing is that when wasapi is activated XBMC reserves the audio output, so as long as the audio is played through XBMC there is no problem, playing sound from programs running beside XBMC, problems. I was able to fix this by disabling menu sounds, then XBMC no longer reserves the audiooutput unless a video is played. if that doesn't work maybe using a script that pauses or closes XBMC when openning the browser and then reopens when closing the browser, could work instead. this kind of solutions is very popular when using advanced launcher for games.
