    Media playback slower than on other devices


    Media on my device has a slower playback rate than on other devices as well as a stopwatch. It's just over a second slower per minute. One minute on the stopwatch is >58 and <59 on the playback. It hasn't always been like this but I'm unsure when it started. Affected playback is everything from Youtube videos, Youtube streams, Twitch streams, Twitch VODs, other website's videos and livestreams, local media player videos MP4, MKV in Media Player Classic and VLC, and local audio files in AIMP MP3, FLAC.I've tried changing the audio playback bitrate to 16bit 96kHz was 24bit 192kHz.

    Playback devices

    Before I received the Creators update, plugging my headphones into the front jack socket did not automatically switch the default playback device from speakers to headphones. I had to go to the playback device menu and do this manually. Since the update, plugging in the headphones works exactly as it should but, oddly, the headphones no longer appear as an option in the playback menu. Any suggestion why?
    It has also been some considerable time since I was able to access the via hd console. Clicking on VIAAUD in Program Files has no effect whatsoever. Any views on this?
