Windows 10: Computer sound bug/issue

Strangely, my computer would not play sound from the speakers until I right click the sound menu on the taskbar, go to spatial sound and click off. The speakers are fine, but it seams to me the computer thinks its playing sound trough speakers that dont exist. I can live with doing this every time I turn my laptop on, but it is a minor inconvenience and hoping someone has a solution.

Good surround sound headset

I know you say you're not that guy, but stepping into the $250+ range really brings a change in build quality that might have you never having to buy another set. Otherwise, getting 6 speakers with decent sound in a headset is hard, and that's what you are asking for, and I have no suggestions, but just a bump up the list. *Stick Out Tongue

 

Sound Quality

One thing that sticks out from looking at your "My Computer" specs. You list "ONBOARD 6 CHANNEL (5.1) HIGH DEF AUDIO (AS STANDARD)" which suggests you do not have the correct sound hardware driver. Your motherboard has Realtek sound and the first step is to install the Realtek sound drivers. My ASUS also came with Sonic Studio 2 which is a sound enhancement package. Check the ASUS install disc to see if you have something similar.

May not be a speaker problem.
