Windows 10: Windows 10 update KB5051974 causes Spatial Sound to turn "off" after every reboot.

Before this update, everything works accordingly. Spatial Sound defaults to Dolby Atmos just as I intended everytime. After this latest windows update KB5051974, it causes my Spatial Sound to turn "off" after every reboot. I had verified this issue by uninstalling this update and the problem fixed itself with the update removed. As a temporary measure, I opt to not install this update and paused my update until after March's patch Tuesday. Please fix this issue by then as it's an annoyance.

Spatial Sound

I followed the instructions but when I got to #4 spatial sound said off and there was no other info or any way to turn it on. I hit return to default but that did nothing. Please help. my earphones are off .

 

Spatial Sound

Hi,

The Spatial Sound feature is available in Windows 10 but by default, it has been disabled. To enable it, follow the steps below:

• In the notification area, right-click on the sound icon.
• In the context menu, click on Playback devices.
• Select your playback device and then click on Properties.
• Click on the Spatial sound tab.
• Select the Spatial sound format you want to apply.

Get back to us if there is anything else. We'll be glad to help.

 

Spatial sound is not available on this device

I think it's pretty obvious that he wasn't looking for that answer. He clearly explained that he's not able to turn on the spatial sound and not that he's unable to find a way to turn the spatial sound on. I've got the same problem and I too am looking for
answers. Thank you for being nice enough to come up with an answer but please read the questions carefully before answerig them.
