I have a similar problem.. sometimes the audio engine will stop but I see the meters dancing.

If I fg to preferences and just invoke the driver and bring up the aiso panel and click OK it must reset the audio engine and everything plays then

I've experienced strange issues with the audio loss as well.  When I modify ASIO settings within Sonar, or invoke the ASIO panel from other audio programs (e.g. BFD2), I lose audio - no sound, nothing registering on the meters, etc.   It's as if the audio engine is frozen - I also seem to lose some audio configuation settings when this occurs - when I look in edit->preferences, some configurations are gone.  Only resetting the pc and audio interface restores the sound.
 
I'm not sure if it's X1a related or not, as I've also just switched to a new audio interface (picked up an RME Fireface UFX) - so haven't isolated whether the issue originates with Sonar or the RME driver.  RME believes it's Sonar or BFD2 not releasing the audio driver as required.  I figured I'd wait until X1B to see if the situation changes.

I'm experiencing a similar problem.  When I use band-in-a-box, even if Sonar is closed, when I close BIAB and go back into Sonar, the audio engine doesn't work.  For me, I have to reboot windows to fix things.  Not exactly a workflow enhancement.  It looks like the answer wasn't obtained with the above thread?

 I think this could be an issue with sample rate change on win 10 not working properly.
I`m seeing alote of treads about win 10 and usb problems while trying to solve my problem.
I hope its not that big cause if we have to wait for Microsoft God help us all.
Peace
