If there's a winmm connection through wdmaud2.drv (a DAW, or the midi1monitor app, for example), the MIDI Service will not shut down/restart.

This problem does not happen with apps that are using the MIDI 2 SDK/API directly.

This is compounded in cases where we have something like the Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol service, which appears to hold a connection open. It's a Windows Service, so it's long-running.
