Audio issue after upgrading to Windows 10, Version 1809
I'm seeing an issue on multiple computers when I upgrade to the latest Windows 10 build (1809). It's a little funky on when it shows up but it's a pretty major issue for me and I'm curious if any one else has seen it.
The main issue I have is that I'm trying to use Assigned Access, and with that whenever I boot the computer from all the way off I don't get any audio from the video files I play from my app. However if I reboot the computer (without actually powering it down) it will work just fine until I shut it down again.
Most people don't use assigned access, but there are a few other places this shows up. The easiest one for people to test is by booting the computer from off and before logging into a user click on the Ease of Access icon. This should play the audio "Make your computer easier to use..." on my computer it won't, unless I reboot, or log into an existing user.
Interestingly if I log into a user for the first time after booting from off most the audio won't work, but some, like notifications and the sound you get when clicking on the volume level bar will paly. Things like mp4 videos and mp3 files won't, I don't know if this is a file type or player difference.
Another note is that if I look at the mixer while audio is supposed to be playing but isn't the sound level on the app will go up and down, but not on my output device. I have Realtek Audio chipsets, but I've tried multiple Realtek drivers as well as the default HD Audio Driver in Windows they all acted the same as far as I could tell. I did not have this problem with Windows version 1803.
Has anyone else seen this? I'd love to have some people try and tell me what they see. Of course even better is a good fix for it.
Thanks in advance for any help I get.
