I had this problem for over a year now. I can't hear any sound from the system through my speakers or headphones, forcing me to purchase a USB with the soundcard (the shitty ones with poor quality).

Here is what I tried:
Installing/reinstalling the Realtek software a couple times
Going into bios and Enabling/Disabling Integrated sound (the problem is I only have two options Enable/Disable because it's an MSI Motherboard) - I heard it fixed with other Bios motherboards (changing it from Auto to Enable)
Disabling the sound card of my GPU through Device manager.
Messing up with Realtek settings.
Updating BIOS / GPU driver
Connecting to the front panel


My setup:
GPU - R9 280 Club 3d
MSI (MS-7760)
DVI Dual Link monitor cable

Please help.
 
It might pay to check the audio settings on your graphics. Right click on the desktop and open "AMD Radeon settings", click on "Preferences" and then "Radeon additional settings". Under Audio it should say which device it's using, click on it and check it's on Realtek Digital output and speakers.

Yeah, it does show that Realtek is the default speakers device. But it shouldn't be a surprise because my monitor doesn't support HDMI sound or anything else.

please help :(
