Fb2k_v1.5.0_Beta 18, Volume slider is not functioning.

regardless of what I am playing in Foobar2000 v1.5.0_Beta18, the volume slider is not functioning at all...
I can move it left to right and back and the volume is not changing at all...

nvm it was a glitch in output:device selection..
 I just decided to check it out of intuition and found it blank...
once I re-selected the device:[Speakers {Realtek High Definition Audio} ] the volume control started working again... lol..
works fine under  device:[Primary Sound Driver] too...

I'm not sure what or how this happened..

This is the problem we spotted that delayed beta 18. But Peter decided not to add any last minute changes as the bug has been present forever. There will be at least one more beta before stable release to test the fix for this.

Problem appears related to audio device identifiers changing nonsensically after fb2k startup.

If you can reproduce it reliably with fb2k 1.5 series (note that getting it to trigger again requires fb2k restart), please try with 1.4 and 1.3 series also -

As far as I can tell this bug must be several years old at least. I've been able to trigger it with fb2k 1.4.3 on Windows 7.

ooh ok.. its just it never happened to me before... like this... 

when I do a Realtek HD Audio driver update, I have to re-select the output device if I had speakers selected before...

it happens every time I run Foobar2000 v1.5.0_Beta18 now.. well almost every time.. it seems to have stopped for the moment..
I will post again the next time it happens..

and yes I use Windows 7 as well...  ULTIMATE SP1 (x64)
