As you can see in the short video above, the RME interface is programmed with a forced “clock source” on channel 4 of the audio interface inputs. This is what forces the 44kHz refresh rate if an RME audio input is used by the software, MG3 or GP5.
Simply setting the “clock source” to “Internal” should allow the audio interface to adjust automatically.
This might solve the problem…

Sounds like the audio device is being reopened at 44.1k when MG3 loads. I’d try forcing the interface to 48k in Audio MIDI Setup / interface control panel, then set GP’s audio engine to 48k and restart GP. Also test a blank gig with only MG3 to see if another plugin is triggering the rate switch.
This is on windows. MG3 by itself causes the issue. As long as the standalone is set to 44khz anyway.
Source 4 is and ADAT input following a converter which is set to 48kHz and that cannot be changed by the computer as it is.a separate piece of hardware following house’s word clock set to 48khz
Software cannot change the word clock’s rate, it has to be done by a hardware switch on the master clock
Same issue happens if it is set to internal. The plugin should NOT change the host’s sample rate value in any case.
IF its true that you can have the hex input come from another audio interface, I could see how having it not set to “Input from DAW” could make trouble, but that’s not the case here
