Glenn,

Because BIAB set WAS (a new Windows driver) as the default audio driver with the update from 2015 to 2018, it's not safe to assume that all audio settings have remained the same after the update. Hence my post above. In 2015, the default driver was MME.

I've discovered over the years, updates that involve changing driver settings often impact on previous settings and everything needs to be re-checked.

Also, many times over the years, users on these forums have found that updating drivers for audio cards and video cards has often solved sound issues, too. (Just in case you haven't tried this yet.)

Lastly, if I recall correctly from an earlier comment of Peter Gannon's, the WAS error of 9998 is related to the fact that BIAB runs at 44.1 KHz and 16 bit, and the computer's soundcard is set to a default that does not match this (hence my suggestion in my previous post regarding checking that "Allow applications to take exclusive control of this device" is active because then, when BIAB is running, it will drive the soundcard at the audio values it needs.)

Regards,
Noel
