This may well be a dumb question, so please forgive me if it is. The UAudio website says UA Connect will install an additional ASIO driver and if so, have you installed it, or are you using a Windows default ASIO driver? I think most audio interfaces will work OK with the default driver, but the Volt may not, that may be why. FAQ: Will Volt Work on My System?

Progress rapport:
I have changed the driver in Baib from ASIO to WAS. I now have sound! I have double checked with several songs both MGU and SGU, of these one particular song (and unfortunately the song was newly downloaded thus the one where I first discovered the sound issue) seems to be a bit wonky in that it will sometimes play one time only, or not at all. The ASIO drive seems not work with the Volt AI, though ASIO did work with my previous Behringer AI with no problem. This pleasure of having sound is now so new that I have not had the opportunity or time to discern whether the WAS drive affects the sound quality on Biab or not. While this puzzles me, it works and I see no present cause for further endeavor.
I would now like to thank you all for various reflexions, ideas, analytical suggestions (especially based on my somewhat sketchy problem description), and of course support!
Thank you all!
Best regards and Happy Easter!
0zoro I have just discovered that there is a continuation to this post and progress described above. Today, as an experiment, I changed drives back from WAS to ASIO, and now the sound works with both drives. This is to me a conundrum if there ever was one. I am still happy as to the workings while retaining a curiosity as to the possible explanation which could be offered. Suggestions?

It's possible, but not a wholly satisfying thought, that something in Windows wanted a reboot before it would start properly.

Hi, related i think, truth is is had to take my "studio" down, partly due to some dusty building work we had done on our house but also because im totally confused by the AUDIO SEETING in Biab, PG sent me instructions for MME..............then added at the end " If your not using MME [no one is as far as i can tell......] then let us know"................Added to that my not so very old audio interface didnt want to play ball, so i now have a new one [ Berhinger um1] whos DRIVERS im not able to understand, seems to be some disagreement about which to install for it............so to sum up i have yet to plug a guitar or Mic into it.
I assume again i need to set some settings in the WINDOWS side and also inside BIAB?
Thats my journey thus far.
