  1. Windows 10, spatial sound options greyed out


    for some time now i have been having this problem that is not having spatial sound although i connected my headphones and dolby access does not see my headphones and even sonic headphones for windows does not work too so and in the playback device section when i choose my headphone and then choose spatial sound it says that it is not available as the pic would hopefully show and the bigger problem is that it works with other computers, PCs sporting win 10 and for some chance at repairing this problem i reinstalled all windows (1809) downloaded all driver from their official sites and updated them with driverpack solution and it did not work again so any help please ...

    EDIT: i forgot to mention another problem with sound too it when i use my headphones and then i pause the video or song or whatever is playing to like get a bite or get a sip of water or something when i resume whatever is playing (note that it does not happen all the time and it is quickly fixed when i unplug the headphones and then put them back in) the sound like skyrockets and my ears explode and in some times i even got buzzing in my left ear and couldn't hear with it fo a couple of minutes and for proof that it happens only with this laptop is that it never occurs on my smartphone or my parent's PC so what is the solution for this and i am ready to help with any information.
