Important notice:
Soundpad installs an audio driver extension, which requires a system restart when you run Soundpad for the first time.
Furthermore, Soundpad requires deactivated Windows Audio DRM validation in order to work. If you want to watch a DRM protected DVD and run Soundpad at the same time, one of both will not work. You can toggle DRM validation in the options, when you are about to watch or listen to DRM protected media.
