Kodi removed from windows volume mixer
#1
Question 
Hi,
I am using the latest Kodi stable release and have issues with Kodi dropping out of windows audio output apps.
If I go to 
Windows settings > system > sound > volume mixer > sections Apps
here I will see system sounds and Kodi.
When I leave Kodi idle for approx. 30 min then there will be no audible sound coming from Kodi (no theme, no movie, no music, etc). Other Windows related and app related sound are audible.
If I go to 
Windows settings > system > sound > volume mixer > sections Apps
here I will see system sounds and nothing else. Compared to the previous state, Kodi is missing.
To resolve this I have to quite (close) Kodi and start it.
I have no idea what the cause is and how to resolve it.
Any suggestions are appreciated.

A debug log is necessary to figure out what's happening, see my signature for instructions.

There are 15 seconds captured in that log but you wrote that the issue happens only after a while so there is nothing to see...
The log has to capture from Kodi start to the point where the problem happens.

You should remove the audio device settings from your advanced settings file, they're getting in the way and you're not actually getting wasapi output.
Selecting wasapi default in settings should be just fine.

Hii 
 I'm having the same issue unable to hear sound whenever I start playing Kodi, even though I've tried to modify but it is blocked unable to modify.
