I attempted gameplay today and observed altered audio—specifically, a muffled and low sound quality that persists despite volume adjustments. The issue remains unresolved after modifying settings, updating drivers, and disabling enhancements. Despite troubleshooting efforts, the audio continues to exhibit an abnormal sound. I am seeking assistance in diagnosing and resolving this problem.

Did you just update to Windows 10 Build 1903? If so, then it's a known issue.

Does this apply to all audio output, and does it occur in safe mode?

The audio is muffled while gaming despite clear audio on YouTube and similar platforms. Safe mode has not been tested.

If audio is the issue, safe mode is relevant. If it’s solely regarding games, the problem likely involves audio or video applications/settings within game profiles. Which audio and video manufacturer software have you checked, and which specific programs did you investigate?

I utilized manufacturer’s software, HP Audio Control, and I did not realize its presence until after updating the audio drivers. It was the sole audio control option I investigated alongside standard Windows sound settings.

The update was installed on August 29, 2019, and the sound issue began one day later.
