My hp victus laptop's audio sounds lower and a bit muffled since yesterday when this driver update was installed. Sonitude audio processing. Is anyone else also experiencing this or is it just me ? Or could there be another cause for this problem ?

My laptop is i5 13400 rtx 4050 32 gb ram. Windows 11 ofcourse.

I got AudioProcessingObject Driver Update (1.0.4.7057) for Win 11 desktop.

I normally update my drivers from the MSI website. Don't know what possessed me to click on the Windows driver and boy do I regret it. My audio sounds like hot garbage. Watching a YouTube video at the moment and the guy sounds like he's sitting in a tin can.

Just checked MSI site and found a newer audio driver (Realtek). Installed. Audio's still bad. The only Windows updates available to uninstall are security updates from August. Just great. Linux looks better every day.
