And with onboard audio, the same “zzzzz” and dropped audio-engine (3x restart):
I’m sorry, but need to ask again: Is there any field that has been changed and might result such issues? Fix is only restarting VL (after a loud “buzzzzzzz”…). If there is any, I need to downgrade ASAP! 
seems: v2.2.81 works. Could you please trace it, where the problem might got into the code? ( !!!please, please, please 
!!! )
