@tmm1 Just FYI, it finally happened, in that it paused while I had SS turned off. I submitted another diag: 146a7e2c-444b-49d8-9f04-faf0ab190cc9.
The difference between this time and all the other times, was when I jumped forward, yes, it jumped past the pause point as usual, but this time the audio was all static, similar to the above post. I exited Channels and went back in and all was well again.
