Never had this issue at all with my 1060 GTX... no idea why my 1070TI is doing it...

I have an HDMI output from my 1070 TI to my amplifier for audio, though for some reason it keeps randomly adding duplicate devices for the amp and then seemingly selected them at random... sometimes saying I have no audio plugged in until I open the sound panel tab. I've seen as many as 4 of the exact same device. even setting one as default it still randomly jumps to a different one every time I bring my computer out of sleep mode or fresh boot. I've tried disabling the duplicate devices... yet it will still try to utilize the disabled entries... disabling my sound unless I re enable those entries.
