This is sorta it.  There have been, in the past, cases where certain USB
devices cause issues.  When you click on the Output Devices control, SLX
will call the PortAudio library (a third party dll) to enumerate the
available choices.  SLX uses this library because that is what the
squeezelite-win software play uses and so it makes it easy to pass the
selected output device to squeezelite-win as a command line parameter. 
SLX intentionally is coded the same way that squeezelite-win works in
this regard.  But out of curiosity, if you to take a copy of the
squeezelite-win.exe and open a Command Prompt Windows and run
squeezelite with the "-l" switch (list output devices), would that work?
That might tell me whether its me, port audio, or the device.

Obviously, even if PortAudio fails, I don't like the fact that the app
crashes, but when the crash happens in a DLL, I'm limited in being able
to protect for it.  I think I'm doing everything I can, but I will take
another look.

Thanks for coming here for help.  If you can successfully execute
squeezelite-win.exe with the command line switch "-l" then the problem
is SLX.  An alternative to the way I do it using the PortAudio DLL would
be to call squeezelite myself with that switch and use its results
(would be a bit slower).  I'll try and help you out.

Lastly, does your Windows Event Viewer tell you anything?
