Hi Everyone,
I recently migrated all our computers to Win10 and I'm having a strange issue where we lose audio from applications when the screen is duplicated (to use with interactive whiteboards).
The cause of this seems to be focus assist and it only affects application audio as windows sounds (for example when turning the volume up or down) are still audible but neither Chrome or VLC work. For the time being I just disable focus assist and restart the computer. However, this is on a per user basis so when a different user logs in to the same computer they still have to disable focus assist to avoid audio issues.
This happens on different types of computers, although they have all been set up using the same gold image.
I've googled around but I can't find any mentions of this issue so maybe it's specific to my build for some reason or maybe there's a simple way to turn audio on that I'm not aware?
However, since I doubt I'll be re-imaging all the PCs again any time soon, does anyone know of a registry hack/script I can deploy via GPO to completely disable Focus Assist on all school computers?
Thanks,
Theo
