Thank you for your help. I was able to find the proper logs because of you.
My hope now is the next Windows 10 build and the next sound drivers.
XIV also needs to do something about this.
Glad I could be of some help and glad you tracked down your driver issue. If you haven't tried yet, downloading directly from realtek's website instead of gigabyte's might fix your problem. A lot of times the vendors add in "enhancements" on top of the driver that might not be very stable.

I'm mentally exhousted by this issue over the last 3 months.
The driver causes errors but the game is not dealing with sound properly and doesn't recover.
Both are to blame.
That's why I had same issues with my older PC and that's why I have no sound issue in any other game or application that I use.
The devs need to fix this if not now then at the next expansion or something.
It's a huge pain and I can't enjoy the game if this keeps happening.
I will update this thread again if I get a good answer from GB.
I think a lot of people are getting to this point with the game, communication between players and SE is terrible.
