Well, I once had a problem where reaper would take exclusive control of the asio device. That seemed to be fixed and I was then able to use any software to play any audio at any time along side reaper. That still works and I'm not sure if that was a reaper problem or a driver problem or what.
Now I noticed that I cannot play youtube videos while while reaper is running... I do not know when that happened(I think I could before but not 100%).
What happens is that if the youtube video is playing and I start reaper it continues to work. but if I stop the video and start it, it just spins and never does anything.
I'm pretty sure this wasn't a problem before I just upgraded to 5.33. note that this only happens when I start the video for the first time. A pause does not cause the problem. If I start reaper first, try to play the video, then close reaper, the video still never starts.
It is a specific issue with reaper, audio hardware, and youtube. Maybe youtube changed some things. It is obviously that it is a audio issue though. (hardware access I guess)
