2 years ago Just found out: Simple workaround is to not use official drivers from Asus website. The built-in Windows 11 drivers work better in general, it seems – though using them means not having access to the more advanced options of Asus' control panel.
Bug Description
Xemu silently crashes on startup if Asus Xonar U5 is the primary sound card in Windows. Soundblaster X-Fi Surround Pro (sb1095) worked fine, issue appeared after I switched to the new soundcard. I've tried various settings for the card (bit, hz etc), no change. Xemu launches fine if I set the windows primary sound card to my laptop's internal card.
Steps to reproduce:
Expected Behavior
Xemu should either launch with no sound or, ideally, Just Work™ with the external sound card.
