Can you run DxDiag, "Save All Information", and send me the results off-list?

Got it. It is a bug in Microsoft API:

Is there a KB article on it? This should atleast be mentioned on MSDN page for 
loopback recording.

Thanks,
Ambrish

I am running into some very strange issue with loopback capture

1) Open a loopback capture stream on default audio endpoint (headphones)

2) Play audio using WMP. This audio gets captured in loopback stream

3) Terminate audio playback using ctrl+w shortcut.

At this stage, you'll get a buzzing sound from my headphones.

This buzzing sound will go away only after I terminate loopback capture.

Does anyone have any idea on how loopback capture can affect audio going out on 
the device?

I am using sample code at and modified it to not stop capture when flags are 
non-zero.
