Hmmmm. I had the exact same issue as you and that fixed it for me. Do the following:

Click on Control Panel

Then click on Hardware and sound

Then click on sound

When the sound panel appears, click on speakers, then click properties

When the speakers properties panel appears, click on the Enhancements tab, once there check "Disable all enhancements"
