Ever since installing Cakewalk, I haven't been able to play any sound, although installing VoiceMeeter allows me to play through my laptop speakers. But when I plug my earbuds in, the Dell MaxxWave Audio Pro popup doesn't show up to enable my audio jack and no applications besides Cakewalk (and PT First I believe) play sound. I also have ASIO4All installed, although I don't always need my Focusrite but I let my DAWs use it anyway.
Trying to play a test sound on the default speakers gives me a "Failed to play test tone".
I have tried:
1) Going into Device Manager and uninstalling the audio drivers for Realtek (my onboard laptop driver).
2) Checking the two options in Edit -> Preferences -> "Suspend Audio Engine..." and "Always Open All Devices".
3) Unchecking in Windows Sound Control Panel "Give exclusive control to application"
4) Restarting and NOT opening Cakewalk, just Youtube
5) Changing the sample rate of Windows to match what Cakewalk/ASIO4ALL was using...only to find it says "Format not supported" for anything other than 24-bit 48kHz
Any help is appreciated. From what I can tell, Cakewalk or maybe ASIO4ALL has somehow permanently overriden my regular soundcard (registry maybe?) or maybe a Cakewalk/ASIO daemon is still running, although I've checked Windows Services.
