On Win10 musicbee cannot run unless audio is set to allow "exclusive control of audio"
Once this is on, if musicbee is loaded (not playing), nothing else can play sounds.
I would say this is very annoying, eg if I want to just check something out I can't pause, I have to actually close the whole thing and load it again.
Is there a good reason in 2019 this is the only app that takes exclusive control of audio without a good reason? It's not like a game or something where you do want to mute everything else going on.
