A general answer is not really possible here. It all depends on what the program is doing:
If the program processes the video and then sends the result via Windows to the audio device, Windows will do its own processing in addition to the processing by the program.
The program might also specify in its calls to Windows API other effects that will replace the ones specified by the user, or even specify no efects.
If the program somehow integrates its processing into Windows, as by installing a DLL, its processing might win over that specified by the user.
There are many combinations possible for the architecture of the game program, and many parameters values and combinations that it can specify in its API calls. By observing what happens, one may have a guess as to which of the possibilities are true for one specific game program.
