realtek audio won't work with WMA

That should have been Windows Media Player not WMA. This alphabet soup is
getting me.

Windows doesn't use the same driver/filters for all the various ways of
making sound so it's not uncommon to find that one works when the other
doesn't.

Possibilities, in order of most common:

Wrong driver or fouled installation
DX(9) problem
WMP problem

windows searched the internet for a better driver and could not find one.

Windows update isn't all knowledgeable and if you installed a driver not
quite right for the particular realtek hardware it won't necessarily find a
better one.

I'm suggesting you recheck that the one you installed really is for that
hardware,
