  1. Realtek HD Audio Driver issue


    Hi,

    I've had a problem for years now with music lowering the volume briefly when in calls / windows notification popups. I've identified that the issue lies with the Realtek audio driver as when I uninstalled it the problem went away. However, without the driver my sound quality has reduced etc.

    As soon as I reinstalled the Realtek driver with the latest update the problem was back. So I have now removed and am looking for a solution for a way I can use the driver without this problem occuring.

    To confirm the problem is when a windows sound occurs, or when someone talks on discord my music will briefly lower drastically and return to the normal volume after a few seconds pass without any other interruptions. If someone continues to talk on discord the volume will stay low until they stop.

    I appreciate any help with this, thanks.

    7. Click Have Disk and hit browse
    8. Click on the Realtek HD Audio mod folder and look for win64
    9. Click on the HDXRT4 and click ok,
    10. Click Next and Yes

    You should be good then and also make sure before doing these steps that you have driver enforcement disabled.

  4. Realtek HD Audio Driver issue

    Audio driver issue (realtek)

    I have hp 15-bc008tx, windows 10 creators update.

    As you all know it comes with b&o play which is the main culprit in my issue. I found an solution online( link at the bottom) which suggested me to remove realtek HD audio driver (default) and go with high definition audio driver from Microsoft and to uninstall
    realtek from control panel. I did as said and audio worked fine for one reboot no issue whatsoever but from the next reeboot onwards though the driver is still high definition (Ms) issue came back. I repeated the steps ,again fine audio for one reboot and
    messed up for next reboot. I guess even though realtek is uninstalled it's somehow loading in the subsequent reboot. Please help me changing driver everytime for a movie is not enjoyable.
