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.

    I found the following post: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_10-hardware/music-stops-if-i-use-my-microphone/90caa92d-585d-42ba-ae5e-d9c3d07f6ae9

    Although it seemed like exactly the same problem (almost identical screenshots), the suggested solution (in energy settings?) dind't work.

    So we continue the queste.

    Cheers

    In the meantime, I have narrowed the problem down to the selected bluetooth audio device.

    This setup is causing the problem:

    When I disable the first device and active the second (which is exactly the same, exept for microphone support), this issue doesn't occur anymore.

    So I believe it has to do with my microphone detecting sound and therefore stopping the played media in the background. 

    I access these setting via the DisplayLink program. I can't test the functionality without DisplayLink since that program can hardly be shut down.

    Hope to find a solution soon, because it's driving me crazy.

    Kind regards

    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.
