DCS causes my audio devices to disappear entirely and are no longer recognized by the PC, not showing up in playback devices in sound settings. Only a restart fixes it. It is not unique to the device, nor does this happen with any other application, as I have tried it with a Razer Blackshark V2 wireless headset and a Samsung Galaxy Buds. It occurs when loading into multiplayer servers, either at the spawn menu or shortly after spawning. This has been the case for some 6 months.
I use a B550 motherboard and have tried changing the the BIOS settings to PCI 3, and tried adding a " no_device_hotplug = true " line to
C:\Users\USERNAME\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Config\autoexec.cfg
to no avail. Only DCS does this. Attached is a log of such an occurrence.
