Cakewalk version: Latest one, I just made a clean install and fully updated
Windows version: Windows 10 Pro, not all updates, can't update for some reason
Audio interface: I'm using Logitech speakers, an AudioTechnica 2500 microphone and JBL headphones
Driver mode: I WAS using ASIO, but it forced me to switch between drivers every time I needed to change devices - also it wasn't really working. I figured last night that the problem was mainly caused because it had some "realtek high definition audio" driver mode selected by default instead of my speakers/headphones and that worked for... an hour? then the audio engine started failing out of nowhere and I've been unable to fix it. Today I tried switching from ASIO to MME and now it allows me to select my actual devices instead of its coded drivers, and the result is: I can't hear what's in the tracks, but I do can hear when composing and using the default VST loops.
Drivers updates: all drivers are up to date.
Trying to play: ANYTHING on the tracks, nothing plays back.
Cakewalk console: nothing is muted nor faded.
No playback tracks have been muted nor faded.
No playback track is routed to muted buses. Also there are no muted buses.
