I tried to use the search function but theres only one older thread and this is not working for me.


Im trying to running a virtualizer but on every virtualizer i tried i get the error in the logs: Failed to initialize audio client.

Already done everything from this thread: https://forum.rainmeter.net/viewtopic.php?f=119&t=23348

except #7 i dont know how this is working.

I also installed the audio device plugin and the Device Status is 0. o.0
Its not a Pc or Driver problem.

Most likely you have sound software that is taking exclusive control of the audio stream; Nahamic, Sonic, etc.

Follow the steps in this post to disable Nahamic.

If you have a different sound enhancement program running (Sonic, etc.) you will need to follow similar steps to disable them at start up. :welcome:
