Will failing this fail my oculus app if I pass the other Default tests? Its failing the TestLaunchIntoVR but seems like that is a known bug for unity free versions because of the splash screen?

- I'm having the same issue with the audio test. I also did the manual test outlined in the documents and that works correctly.
Same unity version. - I'm experiencing the same thing. Looks like the newer Oculus App keeps flipping the Audio Output in VR setting from "Use Windows Settings" back to "Rift Headphones". So I keep getting a failed test for audio. Doing a manual test things seem to be working properly.
- @imperativity Do you know if the tool was fixed? Does it still flag TestAudioOutput that were passed as failing?
