Not sure, audio I think, usually I'm deeply into something when it happens
and quickly try to get it working again, I'll report back with more info
next it happens.

Hehe, well I can make a setting out of it.
1. always set to the default deveice
2. set it to the last created device.
I use a lot of soft synths so it's nearly always I want the last one.

As I said I would pick the last one, but it might just be my work flow?

A bit too tired to digest, I'll have to retest. Probably you are right, it
works but it threw me for a loop.


Also it's no longer possible to double click on the port to get the Native
