    It's almost like Windows doesn't know they're there at all. Audio is coming out of onboard, and the device manager can't find it at all.

    Hi.

    Let us isolate your concern by answering these few questions.

    You may try the following steps to help resolve your concern:

    • Unplug or Disconnect your speaker from the desktop.
    • Connect your headphone directly to the desktop.
