Freezes the v3.4 feature set (everything since the v3.3 public release):
- Fix the receiver handle leak: the 3-second device-refresh timer reopened the
configured ASIO driver every tick, and Realtek's ASIO driver leaks Event+Mutant
handles on every open. Cache the ASIO probe per driver so it is opened once.
- Realtek ASIO block: detect a Realtek ASIO driver, offer once to disable it, and
never touch it again if disabled; Options-menu toggle to reverse. Global config.
- Device hot-plug is event-driven (AudioDeviceChangeNotifier) instead of a 3s poll;
debounced refresh, falls back to polling if registration fails.
- Quick profile switch: new global hotkey opens an NVDA-friendly popup of all
profiles (current marked); Enter/click switches; plays a new "profile menu open"
cue with Preferences mute + custom-sound.
- Announce assigned global hotkeys on the controls/menu items they drive (NVDA reads
"press X anywhere"). File > Open already had Ctrl+O.
- Held-back changes folded in: config-folder migration, codec-column fix, Tailscale
endpoint network-prune, empty-password guard, and the handle-leak diagnostics
(ProcessSelfMeter, HandleTypeProbe).
Version bumped to 3.4.0.

Headline features:
* Automatic router port opening (UPnP / NAT-PMP / PCP). Opt-in via
Preferences; surfaces external address + carrier-grade NAT detection.
* Lock profile (read-only). New File-menu tick that makes a profile
load-only — session changes don't persist, no save prompt on close.
Unblocks unattended shutdowns (NVDA gone, remote dropped, hibernate)
where the existing save prompt could deadlock.
* Check for updates on startup (default on) + brief countdown notice
before silent updates install, so a launch-time update doesn't make
the app silently vanish.
* "Cue sounds" -> "Audio cue sounds" label clarification.
Bug fixes:
* No sound after the computer wakes from sleep. PowerResumeHandler
rebuilds the audio backend automatically on resume; brief
"Reconnecting to audio driver" splash during the rebuild.
* Receiver audio silent after waking from hibernate. RefreshAudioDeviceLists
now treats a transient ASIO probe failure (returns -1/-1 because the
driver is mid-teardown / mid-reinit) as "retry next tick" instead of
clearing the user's tick selection.
Diagnostic-only changes (gated on the existing Enable-logs checkbox,
zero cost when off):
* AudioStepProbe split into cross-buffer vs within-buffer maxes so log
inspection can tell a real-content sharp transient apart from a
pipeline-boundary glitch. Plumbed through every probe owner.
* New rxNetGapMs + gc0/gc1/gc2 delta columns in the diag log to split
receive-side jitter into network-layer vs managed-runtime causes.
Files touched: RELEASE_NOTES.md + readme.html + 24 source files across
RemSound.Core / RemSound.Sender / RemSound.Receiver / RemSound.App.
Three new app files: PowerResumeHandler, RouterPortMapper,
UpdateInstallNoticeDialog.
Wire format and audio pipeline unchanged from v1.5 onward — v1.5
through v2.1 peers interoperate.
