Audio and video pauses automatically

Audio and video pause automatically (and sometimes pause and play) only when I use an internal (Youtube, google) or 3rd party software (windows media player, VLC, films &TVs ).

  1. It happens only when I am playing a video or audio.
  2. No virus (after scan)
  3. Since the spacebar key is usually associated with play & pause, I tried typing something in MS word. I did not see any auto space being generated between 2 letters. (tested for 5 mins)
  4. Autoplay and pause (sometimes just pause) occur maybe after 20 seconds. (it is random)
  5. I can actually see the virtual pause and play button is toggled. (no other error message is shown, it happens as if I am physically pressing the spacebar key.
  6. issues in Windows 10  

7. the window also very lag when it happening

  1. Driver issues? Which driver is it? Any suggestions or experiences? Please share your thoughts.

    This just started happening to me immediately after updating to Version 10.0.19041 Build 19041

    Microsoft - fix it.  I'm not going through this nonsense of trying a million things, I pay for this, fix your messes.

    Hi is your issue solved?

    I am also facing same issue. Media (song or video) keeps on auto Play pause in every player. Youtube or vlc or windows media player.

    I have updated all drivers and updated windows also.

    Also if i disable laptop keyboard and use external usb keyboard then issue doesn't happen. Some issue with laptop keyboard but spacebar key is working fine.

    This is really troubling me.

    I have a similar issue where I am unable to pause the video on VLC, Youtube etc. As soon as I pause it, it automatically plays after a few seconds. Please suggest a fix as soon as possible. It is urgent!
