THX Spatial - No audio when set as default device.

I have a pair of Kraken TE headphones. I just installed Razer Synapse and the THX Spatial app. For installation I followed the video found here:

When I change the default Sound device to "Speakers - THX Spatial - Synapse", and I have no sound at all. In order for the headphones to produce any sound I have to change the default Sound device to "Headset Earphone - Razer Audio Controller - Chat".

Then, per the video, I am to launch the THX Spatial Audio App and set default output device as "Speakers - THX Spatial" then set the Output Device as my computers sound card (Realtek High Definition Audio (Speakers)). Nothing, not any sound.

Still, even after buying THX Spatial Audio I have no sound.

There are no windows updates to do, no drivers to update. I followed your instructions and nothing. Really hoping someone can help me solve this, I am worried though because it seems like a lot of people have had this issue and with no solutions posted anywhere I am concerned.
