The guys at npcap tell me that SharpPcap used by acrylic uses npcap so it shouldn't cause compatibility problems.

I did eventually solve the problem myself

Acrylic installs the file C:\windows\system32\airpcap.dll prior to npcap this made acrylic's wifi drivers accessible to Wireshark; but only if wireshark was run as administrator.

I simply renamed this to C:\windows\system32\airpcap.dll.old

This solved all my problems and Acrylic still works too. I guess I can remove the dll now since nothing seems to require it.
