The ASIO interface is not detected on Windows in Bitwig Studio 5.3 or newer

In certain cases, 3rd party ASIO drivers on a system might cause issues with the hot-plugging detection feature which allows instant switching of ASIO devices. Please try if disabling the feature in Bitwig's audio settings solves the issue:

• right-click the grey area to the left from the ASIO menu
• in the context menu, de-select the option at the bottom "Detect Hot-Plugging of Devices"
