Windows 10: DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION only while streaming video

I've been encountering a very strange bug the last few months. I consistently get a watchdog violation when I watch content on Twitch.tv, ESPN, or youtube. It is browser independent and I have tried everything to resolve it including checking ram health, uninstalling and reinstalling all drivers.It is consistently an intelppm.sys error:On Wed 8/3/2022 1:42:39 AM your computer crashed or a problem was reportedcrash dump file: C:\WINDOWS\Minidump\080322-15468-01.dmpThis was probably caused by the following module: intelppm.sys intelppm+0x138f Bugcheck code: 0x133 0x1, 0x1E00, 0xFFFFF804672FB3

Video streaming failed with unsupported video type error

Hi,
I was able to resolve the issue by disabling all hardware enhancements for Conexant Smartaudio HD. Here are the steps I took to resolve it, in case someone else runs into the same frustrating problem as I did: Right click on the speaker icon on the lower right hand corner -> Playback Devices -> Disable all hardware enhancements -> OK -> Reboot. That's it!
