    Spatial Sound Disables 7.1


    I have a 7.1 headset that is 7.1 built into the actual hardware. The trouble is that if I set it up as a 7.1 device, spatial sound is disabled and if I enable spatial sound 7.1 is reverted to stereo. Is there any way to fix this?

    :)

    Spatial Sound

    Hi,

    The Spatial Sound feature is available in Windows 10 but by default, it has been disabled. To enable it, follow the steps below:

    • In the notification area, right-click on the sound icon.
    • In the context menu, click on Playback devices.
    • Select your playback device and then click on Properties.
    • Click on the Spatial sound tab.
    • Select the Spatial sound format you want to apply.

    Get back to us if there is anything else. We'll be glad to help.

    I followed the instructions but when I got to #4 spatial sound said off and there was no other info or any way to turn it on. I hit return to default but that did nothing. Please help. my earphones are off .
