RX audio keeps disappearing - need to access Windows Sound Settings, swap outputs, the swap back

[W4AFK]

Current AetherSDR, remote Flex 6400 radios w/4.2.20, Win 11 home computer, Bose System 5 speaker system (USB)

• When I use AetherSDR to connect to my 6400 or to our club's 6400, after a while, I lose the RX audio and to recover, I need to open the Win 11 sound settings, switch the output to another device, then switch it back the BOSE USB device. It will work for a while, then the problem occurs again.

• This does NOT occur if I use SmartLink to acces these remote 6400 radios - In other words, no loss of RX audio

• This does NOT happen when I connect to any of our club's remote KiwiSDR 2 receivers

All my RX audio is via the BOSE System 5 but the problem is only happening when using AetherSDR.

Ideas? Suggestions?
