Windows 10: Audio not detecting proper device

I was trying to plug in my headset to play games and do voice chat. Somehow, the notification that usually has a multitude of options only shows Headphones or Speaker Out as my options. How do I get it to display Headset with mic?


Also, when plugging the headset into the Mic Jack, the microphone doesn't work and neither do the headphones.

No audio devices detected


So, after upgrading to Windows 10, my computer no longer detects any audio devices.

Device manager only detects nvidia hd audio
Playback devices only detects nvidia hd audio

After installing realtek drivers, realtek is nowhere to be found - no icon in system tray, no realtek device in device manager etc.

USB headphones work fine, just dont have any support for rear panel audio jacks, have disconnected front panel audi connector, installed fress win10 copy, still nothing
