I have Win 7 64bit. I just downloaded and updated to the nightly a few days ago. I use the optical output of my ASRock H55 to the optical in of my Onkyo audio receiver. When I select WASAPI: SPDIF - Realtek Digital Output, I get muted audio while navigating menu items for the first second of sound. Then after that 1 second the audio is fine and moving the cursor creates audio. But when I pause for 1 second and move the cursor again it starts muted all over again. When I select DirectSound SPDIF Realtek Digital Output, the audio is normal and always on.
So I just use DirectSound. But which should be better? And should I worry about WASAPI not working correctly?
