Windows 10: How can I tell if Windows Sonic (Spatial Sound) is working in a game?

It's enabled, and I'm playing Assassin's Creed Unity which has 5.1 support, but I didn't notice any difference. Also, I use an audio card, so I'm not using the Nvidia High Definition output, if that makes any difference.

Proof that it's enabled: https://i.imgur.com/wFDXBfv.png

Windows Sonic doesn't work in applications unless realtek is set to 7.1, which disables windows sonic.

Hi Dorklingshot,

I would like to know what device you were trying to work with Windows Sonic. If you're trying to set up Windows Sonic for Headphones, then follow these steps:

1. Connect your headphones to your computer.
2. Once done, right-click on the Speaker icon on the system tray, and select
   Spatial sound. If you have a drop-down option, then select
   Windows Sonic for Headphones. If you don't, then proceed with the next step.
3. On the Speaker Properties window, click the Spatial sound.
4. Under Spatial sound format, click the drop-down arrow, and select Windows Sonic for Headphones.
5. Tick the box for Turn on 7.1 virtual surround sound.
6. Click Apply, then OK.

Please update this thread with the result so I can assist you further if needed.

Regards.
