    Windows 10 playing a sound effect around every 30 seconds to a minute.


    So, i got on my pc today and heard a strange ringtone type noise and was wondering what it was. I thought it was a game i forgot to close. Nope. Discord? Not that either. It was system sounds make the noise. Ofcourse I could just mute it system sounds all together but I do need system sounds sometimes. According to this video the noise is ring 3. I have absolutely no clue what could be making this noise at all. If anyone knows how to disable it please let me know. Thanks :

    :)

    Annoying audio delay for 2 seconds after at least 30 seconds of no sound played

    I bought a new fresh Lenovo Ideapad S340 which everything seems to be pretty fine at first until i connected my headphones. My computer's audio have a silent 2 second delay that is caused after leaving the pc to not play any sound or any video in the system
    for at least 30 seconds. I've tried most of the recurring solutions around the internet but none of them did work out of my frustration:

    • Uninstalling the Realtek driver from Device Manager and restarting my computer.
    • Replacing the Realtek driver from Device Manager with a generic High Definition Audio driver. It seems to work but instead of the 2 second delay it played a bothering popping sound everytime it starts playing audio after at least 30 seconds of silence.
    • Disabling hardware acceleration from the Control Panel's audio settings.
    Such a problem is making me struggle a lot with no end and i've only paid a lot for this. I don't want such laptop that has this particular, annoying audio problem that seems to be utterly unresolvable.

    I heard that it might be some idling system that is doing this but i'm not entirely sure.

    EDIT: I don't use Intel but AMD Ryzen 5.

  3. USB Headsets stop working after 10-30 minutes

    My sound quits after about 10-30 minutes after playing Far Cry 2 and CS:GO for 20-30 minutes. There are no symptoms of any kind before the sound stops working. It works just fine when I exit to windows and relaunch the games. In CS:GO changing the speaker configuration from headphones to 2 speakers or any other configuration fixes the problem, though it recurs anywhere from 10-30 minutes later. In Far Cry 2 which doesn't have any options beyond adjusting volume, I have to relaunch the game and all is well for 20-30 minutes. I'm running a fresh installation of Windows 7 and have tried different USB headsets (Logitech H 390 and Arctic P531) both of which give me the same issue. Can anyone please help me solve this issue?

    Windows 10 playing a sound effect around every 30 seconds to a minute.

    Sound signal intermittently loses bass, then returns after 30 seconds

    I am using a Lenovo T410 with conexant 20585 hd smartaudio. Use Windows 10 64-bit.
    I have Jabra SoleMate connected via a cable on the sound output 3,5 mm connector of the laptop.

    Music sounds good, but bass disappears every 15 minutes or so for some 30 seconds (approximately).
    This effect occurs with every sound playing app I try (Windows Media Player, MediaMonkey, Chrome/Youtube...)
    It is not completely making the sound unusable, but it is clearly noticeable and disturbing as you take note each time it occurs.

    Anyone any ideas please ? I have tried installing recent driver I could find and tried to tweal output setting but nothing seems to affect this problem. I searched the internet for similar behaviour but could not find anything similar fitting this effect description.
