Whenever I try to change the bit depth, I only have that one option available to me. I can't go higher or lower then 16bit 48kHz. I don't know if the Realtek chip has a hard 16bit limitation (I doubt it), but I find it odd that I don't have lower quality options available either. Even though a higher bit-depth is not that perceptible outside of audio production (I've worked on audio focused projects. Audiophiles are gullible), I don't like the idea of having performance left out of my hardware and I don't want a potential issue to stem into other areas.
I tried uninstalling the audio drivers, updating to the latest Realtek drivers, made sure the B&O software was running properly and without enhancements, Spatial Audio turned off, and had hardware acceleration ticked off all with restarts. Still grayed out.
Can anyone help steer me in the right direction here? I don't know what else to debug here.
