    When running BA Live and changing applications I will sometimes lose sound through my SPDIF output (analog output continues to work) and have to run the the Pass-through test to get it back. The sound is from an Envy24 based Dynex (Best Buy house brand) card. So for example if I am listening to Pandora and then stop playback there and go to iTunes, my sound through the SPDIF suddenly goes dead, forcing me to run the test. If I happen to be listening to something in the background and go to a website that has sound I will sometimes lose sound then too as well. Is there anything I can do prevent this from happening? It’s really annoying.

    Thanks,
    Stuart

    Hi Stuart!

    That sounds annoying indeed.

    Breakaway has no code of any kind to talk to the sound card mixer. All it does is to request playback or recording. Thus, this problem sounds like a sound card driver issue — Breakaway does nothing that should be able to affect the S/PDIF input. In fact, Breakaway has no clue what kind of input or output it’s using!

    Hey Leif,

    I seemed to have fixed the problem by changing the output from KS to DS. Can’t wait to get the toolbar for BA Live!
