thanks for your message. Sorry for the short delay
I tried the latest beta a minute ago and sadly, the issue isn't fixed and still persists. Tested directly with Anno1800 and let DF logging Debugoutput.
For the moment i disabled DF because of this and live with the really really bad Windows native taskbar.
But if there is any way for me to help you debug this, just let me know.

I've attached the new DebugLog to this message.

Thank you,

i have a kinda strange problem here and the explanation may sound strange, but bear with me
I switched graphics cards last week and since the switch, for whatever reason, DF interfers with Ubisoft games in such a way, that those games are unplayable with the multimonitor taskbar enabled.
I'm an IT guy and build my PCs myself for years, so the switch itself wasn't anything exciting. DDU with the old card, pc off, new psu and card installed, pc on, new driver. The usual.
That's just for the background info

But since i switched cards (from a 3080TI to a 4090) DF is interfering with the audio in the majority of Ubisoft titles, but only Ubisoft titles for whatever reason, showing in an endless "audio off, audio on, audio off, audio on loop"
I recorded it with OBS (it may be a bit quiet, sorry about that): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M-J9kIZX19Q

The driver i installed for my new card is the same as for the 3080TI. Nothing except the GPU and the PSU has changed in the system and no additional software was installed.

Affected and tested so far:
- Anno 1800
- ACdyssey and Valhalla
- Ghost Recon: Wildlands and Breakpoint
- Division 2

All other games i play and have way bigger performance requirements are not affected by DF, e.g.: Cyberpunk 2077, Witcher 3, Dragons Dogma 2, Monster Hunter Wilds or even VR titles, titles from the Xbox gamepass, EA titles, too.

Everything works fine except the Ubisoft ones. At first i thought it was something with the used engine, but Anno and the other ones use different ones.

After a really long and in depth troubleshooting session i could narrow the culprit down to the DF multimonitor taskbar.
When i close DF everything works fine and when i just disable the taskbar everything is working fine, too.
What is NOT working is a compatibility setting to just disable the taskbar when e.g. Anno1800 is running.
All other settings i tried aren't affecting this problem in any way. And since i only use and need the mm taskbar, i could in theory leave everything else off.
I updated my DF to the newest beta, but this didn't fix it either.

I can't really think of a good reason why it happens all of a sudden after a GPU change and troubleshooted everything from the uefi upwards, but since it didn't happen under my Arch Linux dual boot, it was a Windows problem and after a bit more troubleshooting a DF problem.

I've attached the troubleshooting file to this post. So maybe you can figure this one out.

Thank you,
