    Dolby atmos no longer working


    The app has been working great for months so i bought it after the free trial ended, but since last week that has not been the case. it will no longer work. When loading the app get told to select dolby atmos for headphones in the spatial sound box, the option does not appear can only select windows sonic , even after uninstalling and re-downloading the app multiple times. Iv gone to settings and reset the app to no avail, iv went on to control panel and ended the process for run time broker and dolby it self but it still wont work. Im currently on windows insider rs_prerelease 19546 build so could it be a bug with this current release ?

    :)

    • At the bottom right side of your screen, where the Time and date can also be located, look for the
      sound icon.
    • Right click on the sound icon, a smaill window will pop up with the Sound
      menus.
    • Click on the Playback Devices.
    • The Sound window will appear with the Playback
      tab.
    • Look for Dolby Atmos to make sure that it is properly installed.

    If its not on the list in Playback Devices, kindly check if its listed in Device Manager by:

    • From the Start menu, type in Device Manager, then
      Enter.
    • Then click the Sound, video and game controllers driver.
    • Look for Dolby Atmos, then right click on it, then click

    Dolby atmos no longer working!

    I just installed fcu on my rig and lost my atmos in formats that arent atmos. My receiver is now showing dolby surround for non atmos streams like games music and internet. Everything showed atmos when there was sound pre fall creators, now it only shows
    dolby surround. Was atmos removed on non atmos content?

    Dolby Atmos

    I checked this line:

    5. Look for Dolby Atmos to make sure that it is properly installed.

    and i have list with my two audio cards :

    1. onboard - Realtek High Definition audio

    and

    2. dedicated Asus xonar DG audio device.

    When selecting option 1. i have spatial sound dolby atmos option, but when selecting option 2, i have listed only "none" under spatial sound.

    I can confirm that i had spatial sound on previous win10 build

    For this part:

    • From the Start menu, type in Device Manager, then Enter.
    • Then click the Sound, video and game controllers driver.
    • Look for Dolby Atmos, then right click on it, then click Unintall.
    • Once done, remove your Dolby Atmos device and restart you computer.
    i dont have dolby atmos under sound, video and game controllers
