I Launched Autoplay (right click the DRIVE) and selected Play Windows DVD
It started, but the sound was terribly distorted (but not over loud)

Yes, definitely movie DVD's.
I did some tests for you on an older PC regarding your sound distortion finding and from those I suspect it will be the audio driver you are using.
I did not test a lot of drivers because I immediately found the following.
On the test machine the movie DVD audio was fine if the standard High Definition Audio driver was used. I then installed the SoundMAX Integrated Digital HD Audio drivers (which I know work fine on this machine under Windows 8.x and earlier) and the movie DVD audio was then distorted. I then tried an Audio CD in the same drive (with Winamp player which I chose because I know it has not been updated for a long time, so pre-Windows 10) with the SoundMAX driver and there was no audio, but again it played fine with the standard High Definition Audio driver.
So it seems there may be some Windows 10 audio driver issues around, not that I have discovered any here during normal use (and I use several DSP applications on PCs for other work), either the drivers themselves or as between the driver and the media playing application used (I think you said that movie DVD sound was ok for you with VLC and Windows 10?).
