No sounds on windows start up

Every time i restart to turn on my computer I am unable to hear any sounds. This only happens if I have voicemeeter run on start up.
I've had 2 different set ups during this time.
1. I have a sound card plugged into my mobo and headphones plugged into the sound card. To fix, after every start up i had to go to the sounds options, click on playback tab, then click on recording tab.
2. I have a Fii0 k3 connected to my pc via USB and headphones connected to my k3. To fix, i have to turn off the k3 completely then turn it back on.
This there a way to fix this issue so that I don't have to go through a round about way to get sound back after ever start up?

maybe the audio device is not ready when Voicemeeter is launched... so you have to go in Voicemeeter menu to restart audio engine.
(in this case you might consider increasing the startup count down in Voicemeeter).

Hi. According to Voicemeeter User Manual you can modify the default value stored in the Windows Registry. By using the
Registry Editor, go to
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\VB-Audio\VoiceMeeter and modify the
DelayedStartS value (Default value is 5 seconds).
I recommend to shut down Voicemeeter before changing the value in the Registry.
For more details, search DelayedStartS in the Voicemeeter User Manual.

Is the max value 10? I set it to 10 and shut down and restarted and still having the same issue. requiring me to turn off and on my k3. I tried to set the delay to 30 but when i re-open regedit after restart its back down to 10.

Hi. I tested with 25 seconds and it worked. Try to modify the value while Voicemeeter is not running (use the Shut Down Voicemeeter menu option).

I was able to change it to 60 seconds but this still didn't fix my problem

Hi. Have you tried restarting Voicemeeter audio engine?

After restarting Windows, try selecting
Restart Audio Engine option in Voicemeeter menu.
