Windows 10: Update 1903 Sound Peoblem

I have just updated to 1903, OS build 18362.145, and have lost all sound. I have a Creative PCIe SB X-Fi Titanium, that was working perfectly on build 1809.

I have:

1. Run all Windows 10 built-in tests, no errors found.

2. Run Creative Diagnostics, no errors found

3. Double checked all connections, all good.

4. Downloaded and successfully installed Creative’s latest drive and restarted the computer.

Has MS got an answer?

:)

 

update 1903 sound problem

I have just updated to 1903, and have lost all sound. I have a Creative Audigy2 ZS Pro, yes, I know it's old, but it was working perfectly on build 1809.

After this 1903 update, no sound, so I went back to 1809, and hey presto, I got my sound back. I then tried the very latest 1903 build, but lost the sound again. Have MS got an answer? I will have to go back to 1809 if I want to hear anything, but can wait
a day or so if anyone at MS can give me a solution.

 

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
