This must have something to do with how the Polycade Sente mainboard is powering the LEDs.
Turning the volume knob all the way down does nothing to the lights and just lowers the volume, but muting in windows cuts the power to the LEDs. Whenever a Steam or exe game launches the audio turns off and on which is also causing the LEDs and logo to go off and on. If the LEDs are already turned off then launching a Steam game forces them back on. At this point unplugging the LEDs and logo to just keep them off is my only solution to not having the backlights and logo turn off and on when launching certain games.
Are there any drivers for the Sente Mainboard that can be re-installed? Is there a config file? Is there an image available to re-install from? Is there something else that may be done?
