Latest Focusrite Drivers (3.10) Break OBS-ASIO #114

Plugin Version Which release of the plugin are you using? 3.1.0

Describe the bug Focurite recently released new drivers: Focusrite Control - 3.10.0.1981 I have been using a Scarlett 4i4 for the last three or so years and have been on version 3.6 of the Focusrite Drivers. After updating the OBS - ASIO plugin became unstable in my DAW. Here is a description of what happened.

• Launch OBS Studio (27.2.4) using the latest OBS-ASIO plugin with loopback selected as the audio source • Launch Cakewalk by BandLab

EXPECTED RESULTS Both applications should start and I am able to produce audio inside of Cakewalk and see it captured in the OBS-ASIO source I have set up

ACTUAL RESULTS After launching OBS, I attempt to start Cakewalk. I am presented with an error that THERE ARE NO AUDIO DRIVERS AVAILABLE. By default, I have Focusrite ASIO Input 1/2 and ASIO Output 1/2 selected inside of Cakewalk.

Cakewalk Launch - No Audio Drivers

Click OK and Cakewalk continues to load but there are no drivers present.

Cakewalk - Audio Drivers Selection - No Focusrite

START CAKEWALK FIRST THEN OBS STUDIO So a different approach was that I started Cakewalk first then OBS. This seemed to work as it always has, EXCEPT!

If I tried adding a new track or virtual instrument, and changing buffer sizes in the Focusrite tray icon settings, the audio drivers would disconnect and disappear.

You can see here when I start Cakewalk first the drivers are listed as they should be: Cakewalk Launched First - Audio Drivers Selection

WORKAROUND In order for OBS-ASIO to work as it had in the past, I have to use version 3.6 of the Focusrite audio drivers. If I update to the newest 3.10 drivers, I have to remove the OBS-ASIO plugin and use the standard LOOPBACK channel in the OBS Audio settings which is what I am currently doing.

Thanks for your work on this project and please let me know if there is anything else that I can provide that might be helpful. I will attach a few of the OBS logs in hopes they will help.

Joyfully, Simeon

It sounds almost as though the newer drivers are only allowing one application to exclusively use asio drivers. Can't really help with device drivers breaking things, sorry.
