Hello,
I'm having some issues with my Realtek HD Audio Manager where it doesn't recognize my speakers which are plugged through the S-PDIF/out (Green). Also the volume for my speakers seems to be off, at 100% I hear things as if I had my speakers at maybe 60-70% and I think the cause for this might be that I can't configure my speakers properly through Realtek HD Audio Manager to set it as 5.1 and maybe it is set as stereo by default.
This what I've done to solve the problem:
1. Update Realtek HD Audio drivers to the latest one (6.0.1.6959)
2. Do a roll-back on the drivers to (6.0.1.6873)
3. Re-install drivers from MB's all-in-one CD
4. Check BIOS to see if audio settings were enabled, only option was HD Audio and it was enabled.
4. In Realtek HD Audio Manager, I checked "Disable front panel jack detection", "Make front and rear output devices playback two different audio streams simultaneously" and "Separate all input jacks as independent input devices". Also I unchecked "Mute the rear output device, when a front headphone plugged in".
5. I checked under Playback Devices to see if the Optical S-PDIF/out was enabled as default device, and everything was fine. Then I clicked on properties and disabled all enhancements.
6. Checked to see if there was something muted, nothing was.
Whenever I plug in my headphones through the front panel (Green) on my case, I get the option to configure my speakers in the Realtek HD Audio Manager for Stereo, quadraphonic, 5.1, etc. and I even get a pop up message saying a new device has been plugged in. None of this happens with my speakers, I get no pop up messages, I don't get the option to configure them as 5.1 and even after I disconnect the cable from the optical output, it still shows as if the device is connected and enabled. Not sure if my MB BIOS version has anything to do with this.
Computer Details:
-MB: MSI Z87-G45 Gaming | Driver Version: (1.10) Newest one: (1.30)
-CPU: Intel i7-4770k
-RAM: 16GB
-GPU: GTX 770
-Storage: Samsung 840 250GB SSD | Hitachi 2TB | Hitachi 320GB
Case: Cooler Master Trooper Full-Tower
I'll provide some screenshots of what I see and what I'm supposed to see.
