Crashes when I turn on my USB audio interface

When FF56 is running and I turn on my USB Audio Interface it crashes. If the Interface in on when I start FF it crashes if I try to play a video or music from any site. This has been happening with every update since about April I think, I keep hoping the next version will fix it... I've tried some of the suggestions in the Support like turning of Hadrward Accel, yet it keeps happening.

Hi Phillip So I've just tried a different Audio Interface that connects via firewire, same result. Yet I noticed that it was when I changed the audio output settings in System Preferences/Sound that FF actually crashed. Thought that info might help.?

Cheers Benn

No they are not! Awesome. After putting up with it for about 6 months, I should have just waited another couple of week. :-) Thanks Benn
