Windows 10: Windows 10 Right headphone static

Good evening!

I'm hoping to find some help with a small issue with my new laptop. I recently purchased a Razer Blade 15 2019 model in order to play games while traveling for work. I've noticed that my right headphone often making a buzzing/static noise when changing windows. It will also make the sound briefly during random times of web browsing. I've tried most fixes that I can find online in order to resolve the issue, but I cannot seem to fix it. Please see below to see what I have done:

Tried different headphones

Updated Realtek drivers

Rolled back realtek drivers

Adjusted "exclusive mode" and "signal enhancements" setting in sound control panel.

Adjusted "default format" from studio -> dvd -> cd quality

Adjusted Spatial sound settings

Windows Update

Nvidia driver update

Adjusted volume

turned off and on again

Note- I've booted to the BIOS and did not hear the static when navigating around the BIOS. I only hear it after booting to Windows 10.

Any help would be appreciated as this is driving me crazy!

Thank you!

Windows 10 Updated Headphone Static

Thank you so much for the swift reply! I apologize for not getting back to you sooner but I seem to have "fixed" my issue. What I did was I uninstalled the updated Realtek Audio Driver from my Device Manager and replaced it with the

High Definition Audio Device from my list of default programs. It seems to have solved the static issue without causing any notable problems thus far. I'm not sure if uninstalling the driver from Windows 10 is a good idea but I suppose I could always reinstall
it by troubleshooting through sound options right? If this issue reoccurs I will definitely try out the steps you mentioned. Thank you for your help again!
