Sound is delayed

[kidneybean]

After around 10-20 seconds, I think the audio goes idle, and then when sound starts playing, it takes a few seconds to wake. I had fixed the problem thanks to this post but after a recent Windows update, I noticed the problem reappeared. So I went to redo the fix, and the values had been set back to default, so I changed them, but the problem is still happening.

3. On the My Dashboard tab, click Fixes & Diagnostics.

   

4. Click Audio Check in the One click fixes section.

5. Click Next, and then wait for the audio test to complete.

   

6. Review the test results on the audio and microphone diagnostic results sections, and then click Test Audio.
