Windows 10: Audio services stopping after Win 10 update

Many sites have posts about audio services stopping after recent Windows 10 updates.

The microsoft site has responses on restarting the services, but we are at a school site with a couple of hundred computers. It's not practical for us to go around performing this every time our computers are restarted.


Can we please find out WHY this is happening and when a fix might be coming?


Thanks!
