My XPS is running the Windows 10 Pro technology preview and while most things have worked fine, I have had some issues with the sound card and audio drivers. The problem has persisted between builds 9926 and 10041.
With the Realtek audio enabled, almost any application that uses the sound card will hang. For example, Lync and Skype fail to launch and also IE will crash on any site that uses Flash.
Disabling the sound card and just using the USB audio of my headset has fixed all such issues.
Is anybody else using Windows 10 and have you experienced similar audio issues or not? If you have audio working correctly under Windows 10, please can you confirm what drivers you are using?
Thanks.
