    System and applications sound issue


    Good day all, Previously, Windows updates seemed to stall and would fail. Today, the latest WIN10 updates went through and the update tool shows green and that all is well and current. My music and films/audio play just fine. There is one problem, all of the Windows sounds for any sorts of prompts such as incoming mail or errors all sound the same, a brief blast of white noise. I was advised by a Microsoft tech, in an online chat, to update my sound drivers. They check fine and are current. I can either spend time and others' time to troubleshoot this or simply turn off

    :)

    Good surround sound headset

    I know you say you're not that guy, but stepping into the $250+ range really brings a change in build quality that might have you never having to buy another set. Otherwise, getting 6 speakers with decent sound in a headset is hard, and that's what you are asking for, and I have no suggestions, but just a bump up the list. *Stick Out Tongue System and applications sound issue :p

    Hi,

    I appreciate if you could answer few questions to narrow down to the issue.


    • What is the make and model of the computer?

    • Did you receive any error message?

    • Are you facing issues with the sound?

    • Did you install any third party security application?
    This issue may arise due to the driver conflicts and as an initial troubleshooting step, I suggest you to refer to the article provided below and check if that helps to resolve the issue.
