    If reinstalling the drivers for sound devices fix this problem then Turn off the automatic updates for windows of your computer. Because Latest updates installs the latest software in your computer. It is possible that the Device driver software is not compatible with the new software which is installed by the automatic updates. So You have to download the latest driver for your sound device. So it is better to switch off the automatic updates.

    If Reinstalling the driver software does not solves the problem then you have to download the latest driver software for your Audio hardware device. Because latest windows updated your operating system so your older driver software is not compatible with the latest windows updates of your computer system. Old software will not work for your sound card device.
