Not open for further replies.
Hi Alan,
I got problems. the first time I installed this, it actually worked, except for the DTS. So I used the DriverStoreExplorer, followed the instructions, and remove everything related. Nextly, I went to Add or Remove to uninstall those DTS:X, Dolby, and AAF DCH and then restarted. After that, I tried to re-install the packet many times but It still did not download the DTS:X and Dolby, it only downloaded the Soundblaster connect 2. Can you help me?

NEW DCH DRIVERS RELEASED IN MEDIAFIRE
HD AUDIO DRIVER VERSION UPDATED TO 6.0.9316.1
USB AUDIO DRIVER VERSION UPDATED TO 6.0.9600.2311
MORE DETAILS IN 1st PAGE

ATTENTION: You will need to uninstall the currently installed version before continuing with this installation. A condition has been imposed for this due to problems reported by some users.

RECOMMENDATION: Before installing this modified driver, be sure to remove any and all residues from previous Realtek audio drivers or even if there are residues from previous versions of my mods, if they persist. For this you will need the DriverStoreExplorer (by @lostindark). Remove any drivers whose vendor is "Realtek", "Dolby", "DTS", "Creative", "Alan Finotty", etc in the Sound, Video and Game Controllers, Extensions, Software Components and Audio Processing Objects categories.

Those who want only Realtek material, just choose the panel option (HDA or UAD) and deselect the rest.

I am so glad and sad at the same time, glad I found this forum and the geeks here, sad because I upgraded to z690 yesterday, which after research I found that the "decoding" light on the z906 wouldn't lit coz of this ALC-4080 USB based thing. I am not much of a technical geek, have had been using a Maximus VII ranger since 2015, worked like a charm over SPDIF.

No matter whatever I did, I cannot work the current one out, it's too bad. Had I known this thing in advance I could've opted for something else.

Staying tuned with fingers crossed for an update on this.

The drivers worked in your motherboard?
 
Anyone have any idea why installing this driver would make the audio device up and VANISH (completely)
Default Microsoft driver was in and working fine, install this and POOF, vanished from device manager (says not connected when unhidden)

Uninstalled yet still a ghost.

Latitude 5521 laptop (totally fresh windows install 21H2)


(for what its worth as I cannot find my OG account here, I do IT for a living and family/friends etc, this is just the first time its pulled a total Houdini from device manager on me)

I have an ASUS z690-E Gaming with an ALC4080. After loading this latest driver in analog mode it would trigger dolby and dts mode on my old sony receiver, but I just got crackling sounds. This crackling was the same as it was with the Asus Armoury Crate driver 6.3.9600.2307.

In analog stereo I got this error "Failed to play test tone".
In the configure sound panel I could select 5.1 (my speaker configuration), but when I hit "test" it said "the format is not supported by this interface".

In digital stereo I could hear the test tones.
In digital stereo there was no "configure" button in the old "sound" control panel.

Totally not even this package, some funky stuff with Intel drivers that did NOT appear until after the restart that Realtek did, took manually installing all 30 drivers to figure it out (it was the last one on the list), FFS.

All of UWP apps are force closed, but decoder works flawlessly in Windows 11. Unlike Windows 10 that can uses all of UWP apps.
 
Well Alan, I've recently switched to a Sharkoon Gaming DAC Pro S and disabled onboard Realtek audio, it was good using all these drivers, you made it really easy to keep my Realtek driver up to date. Cheers!

@AAF Optimus I've gotten Dolby Digital Live to work via SPDIF, etc. Is there anything that can be done with Dolby Digital Live output via NVIDIA HDMI?

As I am not using any spdif solution myself I can not respond to SGZ12 response that begs you to share your knowledge, but want to share that I managed surround via my pc-receiver-tv setup via hdmi.
What seemed to do it for me is to leave the Windows audio config set to stereo but also having enabled Dolby Digital.

Surround samples play fine on my 5.0 setup and fancy formats get processed as DD+, to be played on the receiver as 'direct' or digital/surround modes.
Foremost I get surround when using GeforceNow finally.

Thanks a bunch to AAF and many others being a part of such :)
