from programming DirectSound, I seem to remember that you need to pass DSound a window handle. Using NULL in BASS passes the desktop window. I assume that if you don't tidy up when your program exits, DSound attached to the desktop will carry on until the desktop dies i.e. logoff? maybe not... Ian?

That's not entirely true... when win=0, BASS uses the handle of the current foreground window, not the desktop

If your app has just been launched, it's main window is likely to be the foreground window, but to be sure, you should use the handle. win=0 is only really intended for use in console apps.
