Windows 10: Why can't I have 192 sample rate when spatial sound is on?

Whenever I have spatial audio on it caps my audio at 96,000hzswitches it to this in windows 11 settings no matter what I do the second I close the setting with spatial audio from Dolby atmos turned on it switches from 192,000hz to a sample rate of 96,000hz. I can't figure out why it does this... as far as I know they shouldn't affect each other like this.

Windows 11 Spatial Audio is not available with Sample Rate 32bit/384kHz

Hi, new to audio.

Just want to ask. I'm using DAC Type C dongle Conexant CX31993 to listen Tidal at Max Quality (HiRes or MQA). By default when plugin the DAC, the audio sample rate is 16bit/48kHz and the Spatial Audio can be turned on. But when i changed the sample rate to the max at 32bit/384kHz, the Spatial Audio turned off by default, so i switched on the settings. After i close the settings and open it again, the sample rate turns back to 16bit/48kHz (default setting).

I did this many times, Until I just change sample rate to 32bit/384kHz and let the Spatial Audio turned off. The close and reopen the settings. The sample rate stays at 32bit/384kHz. So, are the Spatial Audio is not available with Sample Rate 32bit/384kHz?

Equipment :

1. Thinkpad X280
   
2. Windows 11 Pro
   
3. DAC Type C Conexant CX31993
   
4. Tidal HiFi

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.
