Windows 10. Presonus 16.0.2 USB.
I use my 16.0.2 as my audio interface, replacing my Steinberg UR44, which I still have. I can play audio from my music library or from Youtube, say, but as soon as I open my DAW (Studio One 3.5), all other non-DAW audio ceases to function. The time counter on whatever I'm trying to play will not even advance; it stays stuck at 0:00. The same thing happened with my previous DAW as well (Sonar 8.5). The Steinberg unit was happy to play any combination of audio sources.
Worse yet, even after I close the DAW, I still can't play any other audio unless I turn the 16.0.2 USB off and back on. This usually works, although occasionally I have to reset it more than once.
I find this a real pain. It means I can't even play back a mixdown .wav file to see that it came out OK without closing my DAW software and restarting the mixer. And since I'm new to Studio One, it means I can't avail myself of video tutorials while Studio One is open.
Is there a way to fix this? If not, is there a way for me to use my Steinberg UR-44 for all non-DAW audio, and the 16.0.2 for the DAW?
