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.

    So i got fed up and removed Windows and intalled linux instead. In Ubuntu initially i faced the same issue but linux gives you more options to diagnose the issue. I noticed a PLAY_PAUSE key was getting pressed. In Ubuntu the mousepad worked but keyboard stopped working. Here is the problem.

    But after a a few Ubuntu upgrades the issue was gone.

    I've been facing the same issue for the last 6 months I guess I've been updating since but it doesn't help so I just stopped using it for watching movies and stuff please help

    1. Doesn't matter I've used a couple of other softwares too for playing videos but it keeps happening.
    2. Doesn't happen when minimised. It keeps playing on the background without any issues
    3. Laptop. Windows 10
    4. I've used an external keyboard. I even unplugged the power supply of the internal keyboard manually to confirm it was not the keyboard issue.
    5. I tried uninstalling the keyboard driver but it automatically installs itself. I haven't tried uninstalling graphics card driver I'll do it now. Usually it shows every driver is up to date.

    I'll list some other problems which happen. oh and It's not touch screen-

    1. Pause play every time I'm watching a video doesn't matter on which app it's running.
    2. Sometimes when I'm on chrome, surfing internet, it randomly plays music.
    3. When I'm on a folder that has jpeg files it opens on it's own on windows media player. And it doesn't stop, I have to search task manager and stop windows media player from there.
    4. Touchpad stops working. So I have to use a mouse instead.
