Audiodg.exe consuming up to 40% CPU usage

Hi,
I need help.
Sometimes, I found system very slow. I recently checked the task manager and
found there's a process named Audiodg.exe running at up to 40% CPU usage. I
turn it off and no sound.

How come it happens?
Could anyone help?
Thks.

I think Windows did not auto-detect your audio controller and you had to
install the drivers given by the sound card manufacturer.Use Windows Update
and check if native drivers are now available for your sound card.

Which sound card do you have with what driver version?

If you proceed to the "Sound" Control Panel, double-click on the "Speakers"
icon (or your selected output), then click on the "System Effects" tab and
then click "Disable System Effects", does your system then not error in this
fashion?

This would be appear to be caused on your system by a malfunctioning third
party Audio Enhancement.

Thank you,
