Windows 10: Video & Audio play twice as fast, by default (Win 10)

Recently *ALL* my videos/audios play way too fast. In some cases I can go into the app (YouTube) and change this but its only for the current video. Windows 10 video playback option (under Settings) doesn't address this. In Windows Media Player I don't see an option to change this, either. Anyone have a suggestion on how to fix? Thank You!
