I'll close the other one, actually. We usually close the newer of the two, unless it contains a better description of the issue.

- Has duplicate Emulator Issues #12150: Wasapi needs to either fallback to another audio backend or at least a functional error when the audio device isn't compatible added

The newer one is better, and it's got my explanations.

I have fixed the hangs if WASAPI failed to start under any circumstance now. I will just be silent it if fails.
Falling back the default audio backend does not seem to make sense, especially because even if WASAPI fails the first time, the user will receive an on screen warning, and changing the default device in Windows before pausing/unpausing the emulation can make WASAPI work again without even restarting the game.
