Advanced Sound Settings not working correctly

I set my sound main output to my desktop speakers as a default, then in advanced sound options I set my game, chrome etc.. to my headset. When I shut the game down and restart it goes to my desktop speakers totally ignoring my the setting to my headset. To fix this issue I have to go into advanced sound setting and change it from my headset to default then back to headset again every time for it to work. Why is that and what can I do to fix this issue? thanks in advance!

    Hi

    Sorry to hear that you're experiencing this issue!

    I am Bhavik, an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft user like you. Please note, I am not a Microsoft employee and don’t have direct access to your account, but I will do everything I can to help you with your queries. :)

    After you setup the default output for the first time and open the Chrome and play some videos, does it play from the headset or the desktop speakers?

    I just want to verify whether this issue occurs for that particular game only or for other apps as well.

    Thanks
