Unable to play audio (Pressing play just freezes program for a few seconds)

Hello! Upon updating to aud4, I am unable to play any audio. Pressing play, (either with Space, P, or pressing the button on the toolbar), just freezes the program for a few seconds, then unfreezes without ever playing. Strangely, pressing record works fine and even plays the audio on the timeline, but any form of regular playback refuses to work.

This is being run on an overkill system so there shouldn’t be any hardware limitations, and has been tested in both existing complex projects, and new projects with no files loaded. Anyone know of a fix for this issue?

Issue Resolved, for anyone experiencing similar issues. I switched my Audio Host to MME from the option it had selected by default and it fixed it. Not sure if that’s the right audio host to use, but it at least gave me playback again.
