    What does "recent" mean in your case?

    What audio/video hardware do you have? And from when are the according drivers?

    My video card is an AMD Radeon HD 5700 series. The latest version of the driver for that is either March 8th or August 3rd of this year (because my box uses either US or AU/NZ/UK date formats, depending on its mood of the day). Probably August because it has to be a Win10 driver.

    The sound is the onboard sound for my mainboard, which is an ASUS M4A89GTD PRO/USB3. I've never used anything except for onboard for any machines I've owned. The latest driver on that (which is listed as AMD High Definition Audio Device) is from (probably) June 9th of this year.

    For comparison, the problem only started within the last two, maybe three weeks.

    My brother has that AMD GPU and he has had some bad experience with it and its drivers. Maybe do a fresh reinstall of the drivers. There was a tool for that, not sure I remember the name but probably someone else will. It's really common.

    The AMD Radeon HD 5700 video card is a few years old, but there should be drivers for it, which are compatible with Windows 10. For the sound chip, I don't know. I actually never had issues with sound; most of the machines I see have a Realtek sound chip inside them. These chips are just working...

    Is your BIOS up to date?

    Look what it's displayed at ASUS support site...

    M4A89GTD PRO/USB3 BIOS 3029
    Fixed HDMI Audio function can not work.
    There is also a 3030 beta bios meant for improving system stability. I am not saying you must update your bios. Remember that doing that can be a tricky business.

    So I have been very busy over the last little while, which is why I haven't replied, but it appears a recent Windows update fixed it. One day last week the problem was there, then it wasn't this week, so I suspect the update fixed it.

    Incidentally:

    Yus yus, I've done that before and fried my (ex-)laptop's motherboard in the process I've tried to avoid doing it again ever since.

    Thank you all for the suggestions, but it looks like this one's done and dusted for now.
