So this is an odd one.
I'm running the latest release of XBMC on Windows 7, all updated and up to date. A couple of weeks ago it was working flawlessly. I have audio going out via S/PDIF and video via HDMI, and all of the DD, DTS, etc. was working perfectly.
Then without any warning something stopped working correctly. I no longer get any audio when I play an .mp3 file from within XBMC, nor do I get audio when I play a video file that has its audio encoded in .mp3. I also no longer get navigation sounds, which used to work perfectly.
If I play those same files from the Windows desktop they work perfectly.
I was originally using S/PDIF with the "Direct Sound: Primary" setting, but I get exactly the same results over HDMI.
Any ideas on what the culprit could be here?
