Q: Cinema LED display to windows laptop - all fine, but why the sound fades out?

I wonder if any of you guys here could point me to the right direction!

 

I have a (prehistoric, I know )  Cinema LED display (A1267), still flawless, that I use with both my MacBook pro and pc laptop. I use the pc laptop more, because of work related compatbilty issues. My pc laptop has a mini display port, so the old display, having a mini display cable as well, connects just fine and the screen comes alive. Audio, then, moves through an usb cable in this Cinema LED display model. But when I connect the usb cable to my pc laptop, the display gives out sound played on pc for 2-3 seconds - and then the system goes mute. Green volume bars flicker, but no sound comes out. The pc laptop is on Windows 10 64 bit.

 

Tried everything (updating drivers, searching net for answers for hours, hours, hours...) but no luck. So a thought came to my mind that maybe some technical brain here has got an idea of why this is happening. I love my old display. Help me keep it active, please.
