Windows Audio Service Doesn't Start Upon Reboot After Installing Ts 2013

Hi all, I have a ticket in on this but wanted to ask the community as well in case you have any recommendations.


After installing TS 2013, when I reboot the PC (Win 8 64), the Windows Audio Service does not start automatically the way it should. When I look in Services.msc, the Windows Audio Service is listed as "Automatic" but not started.


I'm running audio through a GTX 670 to a receiver, and the only non-standard part of the audio configuration is DFX software (post-processing app, shows up like an audio device).


Once Windows boot_s I can click the speaker with the red X in the system tray and it will attempt to start the service. Usually it works, but sometimes I have to go into the services panel and stop it first (even though it says it's not running) and then start it again. I have added the dfx app to the list of exceptions in the AV options with no effect.


Any tips?
