Windows 10: Audio Doesn't Work

I have no sound. The computer says there are no output devices plugged in anytime that I troubleshoot. I can and have used the speakers and headphones I am trying to use on other devices with no issue.


Its an ASUS Tuf Gaming x570 plus wifi motherboard and I have been able to download the realtek hd audio drivers it supplies only they don't show up in the device manager at all.


I've tried reseting the drivers, to no result. I've tried going directly to the realtek website to download the drivers from there and they don't show up. I thought the problem was with the motherboard and since its still under warranty sent it for repairs. I've gotten an entirely new motherboard and still the audio drivers don't work. Some of the suggested fixes don't really work since the Realtek drivers don't appear in the device manager.


Anything that'll get me sound would be much appreciated because Im not sure what else to do.
