    auto update hoses up audio again - how to fix


    Hi there.

    I can't find any way of disabling specific updates (that trick of bringing back Windows update to the control panel doesn't work any more).

    So the HD VIA audio driver got re-installed. To remove again simply as before right mouse click against the driver (via control panel -- system --device manager) and choose roll back driver.

    Working again (as before).

    I can tell when the wrong driver in my case has been updated - the default sound device switches to HEADPHONES. Simply changing that back to Speakers / HDMI or whatever won't fix it.

    Rolling back the driver fixes it again.

    Symptoms I had -- windows sounds OK but no application (VLC, Winamp, You tube, media player etc) would play sounds.

    Using ASUS Mobo with built in audio (VIA) and video (ATI based - has RGB and HDMI video outputs). The HD VIA audio is BROKEN for some mobos - the Ms default one seems to work.

    Cheers
    jimbo

    Windows 10 & Realtek HD Audio and Headphone jack not working

    I have two different PCs that when installing the Realtek HD Audio driver the headphone jack stops working. If I uninstall the Realtek HD Audio driver everything working but then Windows Update re-installs the driver again and again. How can I fix this
    issue? I don't want to turn off all auto updates. Thanks.
