may not be restored correctly immediately after rebooting or

and ”S/PDIF” instead.

and output.
Within the Audio MIDI Settings, Audio Devices, the “Bit Accurate”
device will not allow you to select "Use this device for sound
input", "Use this device for sound output" or "Play alerts and

version for this purpose.
If applications are set to be automatically restarted after
logging out, the control panel will open after rebooting or
restart, but the settings may behave different to the displayed
values.
In this case, please close the control panel and re-open it to
match the actual and displayed settings.
