Hi Tim - on my windows machine, I see two sections, one for Microsoft Store apps and one for Desktop apps.

In my case, all the microsoft apps are disallowed. There are 20-ish buttons all indicating Off.

I've allowed all desktop apps access via a single on-off button, it indicates On.

The fact that you reported that chuck.exe had registered access to the microphone makes me think that that isn't your problem.

I think I missed the part of your report that indicated that ctrl-c wasn't functioning.  It raises the question of what state chuck is actually in.

Perhaps if you try:  chuck -v yourtest.ck <http://yourtest.ck> , the resulting dump will illuminate the mystery?

Hi,

Unfortunately, going through my DAC options hasn’t helped, as I suspected.

An odd question, but when you go into the dialog to change access to the microphone and you navigate to the list of applications, including chuck.exe, are those items visually checked? I ask because I’m blind and use a screen reader to interact with my computer – sometimes we don’t get all the feedback from a UI element that we might need and I’m wondering if that’s the case here.

Cheers.

OK, sounds fair enough and the thought had crossed my mind, but I haven’t had another chance to play since posting.

I’ll give it a try, but my gut says that it’ll fail given that Ctrl+C doesn’t cause my simple .ck file to quit – control never returns to the command prompt.

Really appreciate the help anyhow and I’ll post back if I find the solution.

Cheers.

Tim - the only other thing I can think of is that since you have multiple audio devices, the one you are listening to isn't the one that chuck is producing sound on.  If this is the case you have two options:

1. tell chuck to try one of the other outputs via the -dac0,1,2 command-line

2. use windows sound settings to select an alternate default sound device.

It's possible chuck is waiting for access to your microphone and windows 10 defaults to disallowing access.

You can grant access to the microphone via a setting called "Allow apps to access your microphone".
