Windows 10 2004 Audio

[The Great Kamek]

For whatever reason, the new version of Windows tampered with my audio system. By that, I mean when I was playing a game, the music and background sound effects are dampen while primary sfx like gunshots are so loud. This may sound odd issue and I am certain it is not the game's fault; I tested 3 games as result.

I noticed that after the upgrade notification centre said I had 2x new software installed, both realtek audio stuff.

Also using a MSI board (different one though).

 

But no issue like this though; perhaps some of your setting where reset or msi nahemic cows excrement was enabled?

 

Anyway, i at least can confirm that for some reason the update can come with some "tampering" on audio drivers or so (or it was coincedental driver update at same time by windows).

I've fixed the issue -- I had to check mark the "loudness equalization" in the Realtek control panel.
