low audio issues in games - build 18362.356 windows 10

[Teletubbie]

After the September 10th update, I am experiencing low audio issues within games, but the sound works perfectly on chrome or the system in general. This low sound only happens in games.

I checked on microsoft website that problem has already been identified and are looking to solve it by the end of September.

I'm putting it here if anyone has a similar problem, as I've been searching Google for hours looking for a solution. You can roll back the update or disable multichannel audio or virtual surround sound if these options are available.

The headset I own is a Razer Kraken 7.1 usb. Maybe stereos headsets haven't suffered this problem.

Yeah, the new update fixes it, but I had to download it manually since Windows Update doesn't find it. http://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Search.aspx?q=KB4517211

The issue was fixed in the last update. But sometimes it has to be done manually. This specific audio problem. It took more than two weeks to resolve.

The lesson is that we should wait a while to update the new drivers. Whatever, since I've had problems with video card driver too.
