Hyperspin disables sound

[bobsn193]

Hi All

So simply put...., when I run a rom through "MAME" emulator, the sound works.....When I launch a mame rom through Rocket Launcher, the sound works.

But if I start from Hyperspin, and I select a game "rom", the game is launched with no sound.  Not only that, I have no sound at all on my computer until I close both MAME and Hyperspin.  I can't even run a video on youtube at all until i close hyperspin.

This has nothing to do with the sound mixer as nothing shows as muted when i open it while running hyperspin and mame.  And has nothing to do with muted faders (since it seems to work fine when launched from rocketlauncher).

Note:  I had the same issue when running the Nestopia emulator for NES.  But once I switched to Retroarch, the problem just went away.

Any  idea what could be the problem here?  

Thanks!
