My installation directories for the games are a bit buried on my disk, so the file paths are long. The end of the file path originally looked like this:
...\MacroMicroVRService - v0.4.3.1 Pre Alpha - Win64\MacroMicroVRService - v0.4.3.1 Pre Alpha - Win64\Tag.exe
I altered it to omit the words "Pre Alpha" in the first instance:
...\MacroMicroVRService - v0.4.3.1 - Win64\MacroMicroVRService - v0.4.3.1 Pre Alpha - Win64\Tag.exe
...and the XAudio error disappeared. Furthermore, the error reappears if I revert the change, so I'm assuming it only occurs if the file path is too long. I guess it was just a coincidence that the inclusion of the phrase "Pre Alpha" was what breached the limit.
Now I have no idea why a character limit would invoke this specific error to begin with, but I'm assuming that the game itself is not causing it, especially since no one else seems to have brought it up."
"0.4.2 gave me this error as well, but 0.4.3 did not. I made sure my directX runtimes were up-to-date (I have windows 10), but I can't get 0.4.3.1 to make any sound."
