audio stops working eventually until restart

I have an ASUS P4P 800 Deluxe. Integrated SoundMax Digital Audio.
Audio works fine when I first boot up computer. I can play tunes through iTunes but at some point (I think when I try using WMP 11) the audio stops working with all programs until I reboot computer.
What could be causing this?

The problem I wrote about is definitely Windows Media Player 11 related. Audio will actually work with WMP11 until I launch anything URGE related then all audio stops working until I log back in to my account (no reboot necessary). I'm using Vista build 5384.

I had the same problem on my laptop. For no reason whatsever, the audio suddenly stopped when playing on WMP and I had to restart. The problem I found was with a sound card driver upgrade by Windows. I rolled back the sound card driver to use my old/ original one and everything works now.

I'm still having the same problem the only solution is to restart..I've tried sleep mode and to disable and enable the sound driver but nothing works....

Mine starts, as well, but then sometimes stops or audio quality starts breaking up. Tried different sound configurations, but that didn't help.
