Here's What We Know
Samsung initially denied the problem, but after numerous complaints, it acknowledged its existence and said it was working on a solution. The company said in a statement that the problem was due to an update to the Dolby Atmos library from version 3.10 to 3.12, which was aimed at improving the 360 Audio feature but affected other aspects of the audio.
Samsung said that Dolby is already aware of the issue and plans to release an updated Dolby Atmos library to fix the problem, but the exact timing of the update is still unknown. The fix was expected to arrive with the November security update, but that didn't happen.
