Heh, yes I remember making that suggestion in that thread. AE does have the exclusive option, and uses WASAPI by default if that is your Windows setting. WASAPI is the only way to go for quality audio output in Windows, so we default to it unless you force DirectSound with the setting shown in post 2 of this thread.
Be careful switching between the two - AE uses some different settings in guisettings.xml - that's probably why you don't see Exclusive Mode in AE. If you're switching between the two then keep two versions of that file - just rename them accordingly and have the correct one active at the time.
Will be looking at your sample later this evening once I've finished some more commits to the branch - I'll post any findings here.
