Windows 10: No option to enable Dolby Atmos for Headphones?

I had Dolby Atmos for Headphones working on an old PC. I decided to upgrade and when I did I realized I was no longer able to select Dolby Atmos for Headphones in my spacial sound settings. I installed the app and when I did, the Spacial Sound setting changed from "Dolby Access" to "Dolby Atmos for Headphones"



However, when I go into preferences for my device and look at the spacial sound settings, I am greeted with this...



No option to enable Dolby Atmos for Headphones.


Here's a list of my sound devices

Can't enable Dolby Atmos for headphones in spacial sound

I fixed the issue today for my PC but I am not sure if it is me or them.

• I uninstalled any Dolby app installed on my PC by using IObit Uninstaller.
• It asks you to do Powerful Scan which basically scans the Registry Editor to clean any residue after an uninstall.
• Delete everything it finds and then restart your PC.
• Enable Dolby Atmos for Headphones from Spatial Sound settings and reinstall Dolby Atmos when prompted.

It should be working now. Hope this fixes...

Dolby Atmos Headphone problem

-Headphones wouldn't cause the issue, but no it is not specific to that audio output (my USB DAC)

-All I can do is enabled/disable it, try to see if it behaves differently on a different output device to which it does not.

-No error messages

-The sound I get when Atmos is enabled in windows is not distorted in any way, and the demos sound absolutely perfect with Dolby Atmos enabled so it is functioning

-When I started trying other games such as Nier Automata which displays when there is a surround output detected. It doesn't detect my Dolby Atmos enabled device as a surround sound device. Razer surround on the other hand works perfectly but operates
differently.

So Dolby Atmos Headphone is a Headphone HRTF function that is done in software and sends out a processed audio signal rather then a dolby atmos encoded signal. Negating the need for hardware, and as proven by the working demos which require Atmos enabled.
