1.6 beta "Unrecoverable playback error" when changing devices

Hi.
I've recently updated to 1.6 beta and there is an issue when i plug in TV or external sound card - playback pauses and there is an error like 'Unrecoverable playback error: Unsupported stream format: 48000 Hz / 32-bit / 2 channels'. The playback continues without issues if i manually start it.
I have no idea where 32-Bit resolution comes from since none of my devices support it, and neither any of the files are 32-Bit.
I'm using 'Default: Primary Sound Driver' output and have 'Resampler (PPHS)' DSP enabled.
Thanks, Oleg.

The OS should be handling the 32 bit (floating point) format and demote it to whatever format your device is configured to use.

Are you running the latest beta? Some similar issues were reported with earlier versions which have since been fixed.

Thanks for the bug report, issue will be fixed for the next update.

The reason for this is that "Primary Sound Driver" is a pseudo-device that maps to whatever device is currently the default, so it may actually become a completely different device in mid-playback, which foobar2000 doesn't properly respond to - specifically, doesn't change the audio stream format it sends when the new device wants a different one.
