2. Open or Close the game

Observed Results:

Opening the game immediately causes windows sound to fail resulting in me having to restart any program to get sound from it. When closing the game the same bug will occur after a short delay.
This also means Bedrock has no sound for me.

Bedrock is the only program causing these issues for me, no other game or program causes windows sound to have these issues. This occurs no matter what sound device I use: speakers, headset (usb, aux, optical cable through sound card). Occurs on both release and publish and has persisted through multiple versions and reinstalls

Expected Results:
Sound continues to work without having to reopen programs
