Fmod 2.02.22

I read similar topic and saw this answer:

> To start with it might be worth checking that nothing else is sitting on port 9264.

> netstat -a -n -o | find "9264"

> TCP 127.0.0.1:64289 127.0.0.1:9264 ESTABLISHED 13804

After closing FMOD and Unity i tried to do this command but there’s no results

```auto

C:\Users\Yriy>netstat -a -n -o | find "9264"

C:\Users\Yriy>

```

Hi,

Thank you for the information.

Can you please try:

1. Click `Live Update`
2. Select `Retry in Background`

3. Run the project in Unity Editor

Live update should now connect:

Changing audio driver to Windows Sonic fixed my problem.
