Windows 10: Windows 10 Update Causing Audio Problem

I installed the latest windows update on the 16 of March 2021, this cause audio crackling on all sound devices: Bluetooth, Speakers, 3.5mm jack, Corsair Virtuoso headset. So far all issues point to a system issue or update in KB5001567, not sure which but I solved it by reverting the update. All drivers are update date, I've uninstalled and reinstalled drivers, but nothing stuck nor could I get to stop crackling except reverting.


My question is what is in KB5001567 that's causing this issue and how to avoid it in the future?


Thanks

:)

Windows update & Audio Problem in Windows 10

Hi,

Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community Forum!

What problems are you facing with windows update in windows 10 home?

Specify the problem you are facing in audio drivers?

In the Windows 10 you have no choice to change the automatic update settings. Because the change settings option is disabled.

Method 1: Hardware Troubleshoot

Windows 10 has a built-in troubleshooter to check and fix issues with Sound. I would suggest you to run this troubleshooter to check if the issue is with your Audio

Refer these steps:

• Press Windows key +X, select Control panel
• Change the view by option on the top right to Large icons
• Click on troubleshooting and click on the view all option on the left panel
• Run the playing Audio troubleshooter

Method 2.

Try updating the Audio drivers from the manufacturer's website and check if the issue persists.

Follow the steps to update the audio drivers:

a. Press Windows key + X key and click Device Manager.

b. Expand the Sound, Video and game controllers.
