Staccato sound playback on windows 10 during streaming

I'm getting staccato or "machine gun' sound playback on streaming videos on Windows 10. The video is smooth but the sound is terrible. This only started with the upgrade from Windows 7 SP1 to Win10. It appears to be a sound drop off of 20 times per second, good sound, a dead spot the good sound, etc. and ONLY during streaming. The sound is good playing files from the hard disk. I have an i5 750 processor, 4 GB ram and a Creative Audigy 2ZX platinum sound card. I have tried a variety of sample rates from 24 bit 48000 HZ to 32 bit 192000 HZ with no relief. Occasionally the sound playback will fix itself, become normal only to degrade a few minutes later.
