I recently discovered, after a while of wondering why the audio quality in windows was worse than fedora that the automatic windows audio enhancements actually made the audio significantly worse ๐Ÿ˜… meanwhile I still haven't figured out how to stop windows from randomly switching the audio source from my headphones to my nonexistent display monitor audio.

Open device manager, goto audio devices,then disable the audio driver for your monitor. Simple

Simple

it would be "simple", if start->settings wouldn't point me in an completely wrong direction. As it is, you need to know the secret phrase "device manager" (or "control panel" or "management console") to find the hidden settings-dialogs that will actually solve the problem.

Or you could right click the speaker icon in the taskbar

be sure to click on "sounds" an not "open sound settings", because these are obviously total different things.

That's another secret you must remember.
