Windows 10: YouTube videos sounding muffled.

Seriously. This started happening a few weeks ago and now it's only gotten worse. Every youtube video I play sounds like it's being played thru speakers that are 10 feet underwater. This same thing is happening on Edge and Firefox browsers. It's not happening on audio files saved to the computer. Restarting won't solve the issue. Why is the audio messed up???

Can't get Youtube to show videos in Chrome

I haven't gotteen to this suggestion yet - but, I've shut down half my Extensions and, now, I get the voice of the Youtube videos - but still not the video. Thought this clue might help.

Load this checklist video in Edge: (I'm assuming you did at least a few of these steps, since you stated you tried other suggestions earlier) Go through the list of suggestions here to try to repair YouTube for Chrome...

 

Muffled sound on Windows 11 using sound over HDMI and Intel driver

Hello.



I have an Asus Zenbook UX450FDX

I7-8565U

Intel UHD Graphics 620 + Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050 Max-Q

I also have the screenpad that can be used.



I use the following setup:

Zenbook -> Hmdi cable to Marrantz Amplifier -> Hdmi cable to Asus Screen XG27VQ.



I have noticed the following bug:

When I use the sound over HDMI, through the Marrantz speaker, the sound is muffled (especially voiced are muffled).



Funny thing: when I use sound test (for example, the windows sound test available in the list of sound output peripherals), the sound unmuffle during the test sound.



The sound also unmuffle when other kind of sound such as white noise video on Youtube are played.



I see in my list of sound output peripheral that the sound going through my Marrantz amplifier is 'Intel sound driver for screen". It could be an issue of Intel driver or a windows services running and modifying the sound



I already tried to update, then uninstall sound driver and intel drivers and re-install them. Nothing changed

Did anyone found a workarround for this?
