Windows 10 or 11 bootcamp sound quality

Dear Support,


I want to change the quality of the High Deffinition Audio Device.

I have Windows 10 under VMware Fusion and the best sound qualtiy is 24bit 192KHz.


I installed Windows 11 to external SSD and I have only 16 bit 48kHz.

I can't change to better.


It is possible to getting the same Windows driver?

I export the driver from VMware but the quality setting is locked.


Anything would be helpful.

Thx.

I FOUND THE PROBLEM!

I changed Windows 10 to 11 in VMware Fusion and the sound device is High Definition Audio.

I can change the sample rate to better.


If I boot to W11 on the external SSD than the audio device is Apple Audio Device.

If I change the drive to High Definition Audio, than is not working.


Please Apple give me better driver or solution.

Thx.

I tried Bluetooth speakers and Headphone but the same sample rate (16bit 48KHz).

I bought universal USB sound adapter, nothing changed.

I think something is with Windows 11, maybe we need to wait for a new driver?

I have read somewhere if I use thunderbolt(or USB3) for external system than the sound is downsampling.

It is right?
