Within the last few weeks I have started having audio issues with Kodi. The sound to my receiver cuts out or drops momentarily every few minutes. The same problem happens whether I try passthrough or normal stereo out, and whether I run audio through my receiver or through my desktop pc speakers. When I try passthrough though my receiver clicks as if it's losing signal entirely.
It correlates in my debug log to this type of entry ...
Which repeats on the some variation for maybe a hundred lines before returning to normal. In the pastebin log below I only waited for the audio to cut out once (for brevity's sake), but the same sequence will repeat every few minutes as I mentioned. I don't have the same problems with external players like VLC so it is very perplexing. Any ideas??

1. Version of Kodi. - 17.1
2. Windows Version + Service Pack version (Vista SP1 / Windows 8.1 update 1 / etc.) - 10.1
3. CPU/Architecture (make/model and eg. 32 or 64 bit.) - i5 3570 (64 bit)
4. RAM amount (2 GB, 512MB etc.) - 8 GB
5. Detailed Instructions to reproduce the Problem (The more specific the better.) - see above
6. Details of all devices relevant to the problem - N/A
7. FULL Debug Log (see Section 3 below.) - pastebin link above
EDIT:
Problem was the headphone jack was wonky and the motherboard kept registering phantom headphone plug-ins, hence the CMMNotificationClient. Disabling the front panel on Realtke resolved it. Hopefully, this might help someone else having similar problems in the future.
