    Audio on Bluetooth Headphones is Muffled after recent Windows Update.

    So a couple of days ago Windows 10 installed an update on my computer (ASUS TP500LA) and now the audio comes through very muffled on my Bluetooth headphones. This has upset me very much because I have tried the following: updating the drivers, unchecking
    the Audio Enhancements box, and I have also turned off Handsfree Telephony in the Control Panel. Can someone suggest something that I am possibly not doing?

    Thanks.

    Headphone audio feels... distant? Muffled/echoey

    IDT High Definition Audio Codec MUFFLED SOUND with speakers/headphones, Windows 10

    Method 1 results:

    Repair suggested was increase the audio device volume because the audio device volume might be too low to hear, which is not the problem.

    Method 2:

    I do not think IDT provides drivers and was unable to find any on their website.

    Is the sound muffled because the 2011 drivers are no longer compatible with Windows 10?

    What about when there is no sound through speakers/headphones with the generic audio driver?

    Thank you for your help and patience,

    Philippe
