Description
I recently bought a LG Curved UltraWide 40WP95C monitor which is hooked up via DisplayPort to an NVidia 1080 graphics card. I use the built-in speakers in the monitor, which appear as 'LG ULTRAWIDE (NVIDIA High Definition Audio)'
System worked fine until I upgraded to VirtualBox 7.0.2 from 6.1.30. After this the audio device above would disappear if the screen blanked. On unblanking, Windows would have selected a different output device. To get the audio device back I had to start the Windows Device Manager and do a 'Scan for hardware changes'. This then found the device which I could then re-select as the output device.
A few seconds after doing the 'Scan for hardware changes' aI would get an error saying 'USB device not recognized', and an 'Unknown USB Device (Port Reset Failed)' would appear in the Device Manager under 'USB controllers'. Looking in the Windows Event Viewer I found an Error, Information and Error at the approx time this occurred. The messages below have a vendor id in them that maps to Virtual Box.

After uninstalling VirtualBox completely the problem disappeared and the 'LG ULTRAWIDE (NVIDIA High Definition Audio)' device has remained available, and selected as the default device, whenever the screen blanks.
