Go to SolutionXPS 15 9520 - Windows notification sounds are delayed
Whenever Windows 11 plays a notification sound, it's delayed by a couple hundred milliseconds up to 1 second. This is very annoying and makes the whole system feel buggy and slow.
My drivers are all up to date. What else can I do?

This Windows Report page has some suggestions though most of them deal with lag longer than the 1 second that you are hearing.

I doubt that any of these tips can help to fix the issue. I just had a dell technitian verify all the drivers on my machine. The only thing they had left was to reinstall windows. Since the issue exists since I installed windows, I doubt that's going to help

The last suggestion I heared was to reinstall windows entirely to get that supid McAffee antivirus again. I also don't have the time to reinstall all software and make backups at the moment

Alright, finally I found some time to work on this issue. I tried many things, like reinstalling drivers, updating everything with no avail.
In the end I played around in the device manager and it turned out that when I uninstall the device, scan for new hardware (which installs it again) the issue is gone. However this only lasts until the next reboot where the issue is back again.
Since I could reproduce the approach above quite well I decided to create a script which does that automatically on startup.
I hope this helps some people to circumnavigate the issue until there's a proper fix. See also my topic on the Windows help forum for additional details
