So I've just reinstalled basically everything for the second time in the last few days (mega virus - irrelevant). I have reinstalled the Minecraft launcher the standard way, with the .minecraft folder already containing the old world files, versions, resource packs, etc.
I've run into a bit of an issue with the game. It's kind of crashing, but in an odd way. It occasionally triggers when turning CTM on/off in Optifine. This event triggers two things (aside from actually changing the option): the button click sound, and the resource manager reloading.
Therein lies the problem - the crash appears to be a result of playing the click sound when the resources are reloading. Note: this occurs on 1.8.0, 1.8.3 and 1.8.7 versions of Optifine as far as I can tell, and did not begin until I reinstalled stuff.
This particular crash (I call it a crash - the game hangs and console output ceases but the game window remains open, no actual crash report) is from 1.8.3 - I believe the OptiFine version is HD_U_B1.
It appears that some people have had similar issues in the past, and resolved the problem by deleting the assets folder. I have tried this, and it flat out did nothing. Not even a different sound that triggers the error. Ok, next solution? Delete libraries so the game practically reinstalls everything. After tidying up some 404 errors with LiteLoader download on a separate installation, I was right back to the same situation - no change.
So, here I am. Something's clearly broken beyond hope and needs to be deactivated, completely wiped and installed fresh - that's where I need your help. What is likely to be that broken 'something'? Part of Java? Audio drivers? Minecraft.jar?
I could try each and every relevant part of the system myself but I want to at least narrow down my options before potentially wasting days on this.
So I've tried reinstalling the game's Java runtime, then my main Java installation, nothing new. I created a completely fresh Jar file with the same MC & OF versions, CRC checked it against the one I already had, same hash so no issues there. Next thing is audio drivers.
EDIT: Can confirm that there are still issues if I force the game to start in silent mode (disabled all audio output). Not audio drivers then.
Thanks for the info, but I have already ensured that the latest libraries are installed. However, there does appear to be something more to this. The error occurs even when the game is started in no-sound mode (by disabling all audio devices - it confirms in the console "Switching to no sound" / "Silent mode" / whatever it was). Also, this ONLY triggers when resources are reloaded due to the connected textures option being turned on/off. It does not occur when reloading resource packs normally or via F3+S.

The last piece of information in the console:
