Nahimic3 is just pure malware, please Asrock, get rid of it.

Even with native drivers the TOP/Spif out loses audio.
Most time I have to reboot to restore audio. Sometimes if I uninstall the audio driver and scan from hardware changes and let it reinstall itself it fixes the problem.

With any Nahimic3 tainted driver the probmes is much more frequent.
