Solved Realtek sound drivers and APPs


Drivers work fine with few exceptions.
1: I have to enable "Listen to" In in old Control Panel > Sound. to be able to put sound thru outside device (TV box in my case).
Still no working control APP: Any Idea where to get one other than that old Dell one ??

You have not scrupulously followed the CLEANUP process since there is still an old Realtek Ext driver present (6.0.9244.1) in your DriverStore, also you are missing your Realtek SWC drivers (including the one that allows you to install Realtek Audio Control), anyway, refollow only your INSTALL process to install your Realtek SWC drivers then so Realtek Audio Control.
There's no Reačtek drivers to uninstall from Programs and features (this time) Is it OK to uninstall from Device manager or DDU ? I also have Revo uninstaller but also no Realtek mentioned.
Also found out that i missed to delete Extension from RAPR. I'll try that now,
App isn't installed either.
Btw.there are several drivers listed that also mention my Asus Prime x470 Pro, something like RTK, DTS, DTS:X Ultra etc. No idea what that means
Specs don't mention any of those added values,just
Realtek® S1220A 8-Channel high-definition CODEC featuring Crystal

I already told you what type of motherboard you have & what type of drivers package to use (you use the correct drivers package type, the Realtek Ext driver present in your DriverStore prove it).

As I told you previously, just refollow your INSTALL process :

- Launch "Install.cmd" by right-click Run as admin > Automatic restart when install is done​
- Install Realtek Audio Control/Console : Link
Sorry, I uninstalled Realtek drivers from Device Manager because that's only place Realtek is mentioned anywhere. Run RAPR and it's clear of any mention of Realted or those addons.
Downloaded driver AUDIO_Realtek_UAD_ASUS_ROG-TUF-PRIME_RTK_v6.0.9414.1.zip from link on
1666128628417.png
Unzipped it to folder inside it, and now will run Install.cmd (as administrator). Let mejust dothat and will post result.
Edit. Ru Install.cmd.it rebooted but still left with this in DM
1666129307434.png
1666129386620.png
Which means it did not install. All I can do is to update from this state.

I gave up on Realtek and their stupid drivers. There is no reason that one should have to go through hell and high water to get their soundcard working right. Unless Realtek and/or MS fixes the Realtek driver problems I'm going to stay with the HD audio driver and the FxSound app.

I don't have problem with drivers, most of them work good enough to fine, Problem is in fine control of inputs and outputs, front and back. Default Windows APP has little to offer. Realtek Control APP. when it works, has enough control and is easily accessible from Taskbar.
I think my problem is with RPC and DCOM, I'll try to solve that first but most information and solutions I found is obsolete and/or doesn't work.
There are other solutions like going digital either directly from HDMI, external CODEC (with amp or not) PCIe sound card or also external Optical S/PDIF.
Normally I wouldn't insist so much in solving this but if it's really system or DCOM/RPC problem that might affect other things.

@CountMike, I I think my problem started 3, maybe 4 Dev builds back. The sound will not output to my speakers. Before that I was using the Realtek drivers and Nahimic. Everything was working great. I had given up on the Realtek Audio Console a long time ago. Like I said in post 26, one shouldn't have to go through hell and high water to get a soundcard driver working.

To check and prove that something mus de wrong with my system, I did a clean install on another disk of 22H2 and did all updates, Driver MoKiChu recommended installed fine and APP works too. Now I got to see what went wrong with first one and what's so different.

My speaker are working with the Realtek driver again. I used the Driver Store Explorer that MoHiChU linked to and forced deleted all of the Realtek drivers that was listed. I then rebooted my desktop and went to Device Manager and saw that Realtek was listed as my sound device. I was going to update the driver to the driver I downloaded from ASRock but decided to test my speakers first. To my surprise, they worked. I hope the next Dev build doesn't break it again. :-)

I didn't install it. I gave up on it a long time ago. I was using Nahimic that I downloade from the ASRock website until @Fabler2 recommended FxSound and I'm totally amazed at how great it works. As an added bonus, It's free!

@CountMike, I updated to the Dev Build 25227 yesterday and sure as heck, I had the pleasure of pulling my hair out to get my speakers working with the Realtek sound driver. After several trial and errors I finally got my speakers working with a newer driver from MS.
