unclear muffled audio on render

All of a sudden my rendered audio sounds muffled -unclear-muddy. The sound is fine when editing however sounds very different when rendering video. Is there a codec affecting the sound? I have been using Vegas 17-19 many years without this issue. The EQ is off, the project settings are either 16bit-48k or 24 bit-48k. I use a SSL2 audio interface. I do not have this problem in Sound Forge or Pro Tools. Using Vegas 19.0 Pro on Windows 10 Pro. I also have re-installed the app, the same problem occurs. This problem only occurs in Vegas 19.0

Try a "factory reset" https://www.vegascreativesoftware.info/us/forum/faq-how-can-i-reset-vegas-pro-to-default-settings--104646/ Make sure you tick the box to clear the cache.

Re-installing doesn't clean out the cache.

Thank you so much Eric. After trying many things I discovered that it was "Media Player" (Not updated)

whereas "Windows Media Player" worked normally and the mp4 video sound was fine. Therefore uninstalled "Media Player" so no confusion! HAPPY NEW YEAR to you and yours!!!
