Windows 10: Audio disappeared after latest Windows 10 update

I have a Dell Inspirion 13 laptop. Audio disappeared after latest Windows 10 update, around Nov 10, 2018.

I have spent several hours with Dell service and although they have managed to restore the audio twice by rolling things back, reloading drivers etc. etc. (10 hours actually in all) once the latest update to Windows 10 is enabled .....no audio. The audio levels are moving but no output to headphones or speakers. All hardware checks out perfectly, all drivers seem to be in order but Win 10 update kills the audio outputs. Everything is 100% updated, Bios etc.

Any help would be appreciated.

Unlocked Realtek HD Audio Drivers Windows 7 & 8 (With Dolby Digital Live and DTS Interactive)

I originally followed the step on page 37. I used modified 2.75 dll and DTS/dolby shown in audio properties and working fine. After update to windows 10 build 15063. Realtek manager disappeared from system tray and DTS disappeared from audio properties, so I repeat the steps on pages 37.

DTS is back in the audio properties, but when try to enable it, it says 'format not supported by this device.

how to fix this?
