Windows 10: Audio controls and settings changed

After a batch of 3 updates, my audio controls changed. The updates had nothing to do with audio.


In the audio settings before were speakers through an audio speaker jack..

After the update were 4 hdmi graphic card audio connections were discovered while troubleshooting, and no speaker connection.


None of the audio jacks register with the system. However there is power to the audio jacks themselves. The speakers have been tested on my laptop and mobile device and work fine.


Is there a way to either reinstall a driver to help with the connection process if a driver is corrupted, or another solution to help resolve this.

Game controller ID settings

Hi Joe,

Thank you for the update. I understand your concern.

I would suggest you to look for the Devices settings in Control Panel and check if the game controllers are listed. If so, refer to the following steps to alter the settings and check if these are helpful in resolving your issue.

a. Right click on one of your game controllers and click Game Controller Settings. Note where in the list it is. If it is not at the top proceed to the next step.

b. Right click and remove all your other controllers (not the 360/gamepad) and let them reinstall automatically.

c. Once complete right click and check the list again and see if the 360 controller/gamepad is at the top. If so, give the game another try and see if it detects your controller.

If the issue still persists, restart your console and then try to reconnect your controller.

Hope this information is helpful. Please post back your results for further assistance.
