No matter what I do Realtek audio driver provided by Asus in any version does not work for me. I followed one by one all the instructions in this post and others. You start listening to anything and after a while the sound is replaced by a loud hissing. Disabling the hibernation and sleep is not a solution for me.
I have deleted all the apps installed by the Asus Realtek .exe that comes with the driver and deleted all the driver components.
After restart windows reinstalls the Realtek audio "partially" I would say because only SPDIF is available (I have SPIDF powered speakers connected to the optical auto) and it works fine without interruption. Sound also good.
I'm tired of trying all kind of stuff so I'm going to wait until a good driver is going to come up.
My mobo is Strix Z590-E.

Does this mean we will have to refer to this thread for all future driver updates? ASUS won't post any newer working ones on their motherboard driver download page?

Hey MoKiChU, for the Maximus XIII Hero, is it the same Realtek Audio Drivers (UAD - ASUS ROG SS3 MB) driver for the other Maximus line, or does this one have DTS? The product page doesn't mention DTS but I wanted to make sure with you.
Thanks for all that you do! I see your post on MyDigitalLife and TenForums and I don't know how you keep up with all of this lol. -
04-01-2021, 12:52 PMcars10Oh, excuse me. I thought you were a forum Rep since you have access to the drivers.Quote:

hello guys i need some help, i thought i fixed it but i am back to zero again.
I have x570 gaming-e. installed latest audio drivers from asus site.
my biggest problem i have is that 5.1 audio does NOT work properly. I mean, come on do i ask that much from a $300 dollar motherboard?
the center channel and subwoofer sound comes from the front left and front right also. Is this 5.1 audio? jesus..
When i disable the sound effects from reltek console I (THINK) i get correct audio, but i can barely hear a thing! The sound is so low is almost non existent
..
in summary, when i test the 5.1 audio from windows, or from realtek console , specifically when i test the center speaker i can hear the sound playing from all 3 front speakers. When i test the subwoofer its the same.
the wires are connected correctly. ..
any ideas how to proceed, this is very annoying.. -

Thank you for the reply.
As you can see in the above pic the upmix is disabled.
I have my windows sound settings set to 5.1 surround, which is the same as in realtek console.
When i test the sound from either windows control panel or realtek console and WHEN SS3 is enabled i get the problem. If i disable the SS3 sound is fine, but VERY low.
thanks again. -

I'd like to report that finally I have installed properly the Realtek drivers provided by MoKiChU. After he provided the proper set of drivers for my MB I followed to the letter step by step the cleaning and the install process. I tested all inputs and all scenarios and everything is good. It still makes a popping sound when a sound source starts or ends but I can leave with that.
After a new driver is released by Asus I'm going to keep an eye on the forum to find out if it is time to upgrade or not.
Thanks MoKiChU.
@MoKiChU I know that you put a lot of work in creating and maintaining this but the confusion that some users experience is because there is not clear link between the type of drivers and the motherboard in the initial post. In my mobo tech specs it says ALC4080 + Savitech SV3H712 AMP. No word about Realtek or that my mb has UAD - ASUS ROG SS3-DTS MB audio. You do have also a section called: Realtek Audio Drivers (UAD - ASUS ROG/TUF/PRIME RTK MB) and my Strix board is a ROG board. More clarity about which mb should use which set of drivers would be great. Thanks again for your work and help.

Great writeup MoKiChU. As a suggestion, I'd include this in the 1st thread at the very beginning with a title like "How to identify which drivers you need for your MB".

Thank you for this very much needed information. it has helped immensely. I chose to take a few extra steps in cleaning before installing these on my Crosshair Hero VIII non-WiFi model.. Uninstall and cleanup after reboot with Revo, then a manual check with the recommended Driver Store Explorer ( Thanks BTW.. nice tool ) and a final check from safe mode with DDU... also blocking any automatic installs from MS for a bit with that tool.. The drivers are a lot more stable and the time I have between reboots before the popping and crackling starts is a heck of a lot longer.. I cannot attest to the AV Sync problem returning at present... which is a good thing as well. Here's hoping they get it fixed soon.. The Realtek Audio Control panel is still crashing after I begin using media or anything else that accesses the audio for an extended period of time.. It will remain in operation if accessed before so opening, but fail after closing and re-attempting in the above stated circumstances..Sonic Studio and radar remain operational and stable...
I was able to more than effectively use the system for over 8 hours without incident.. but have to reboot as of returning this morning... popping returned.. My system is both 5.1 and 7.1 enabled. the mains are a 6.1 home theater setup and the Headset is a true 7.1 from Razer... Ryzen 3800X and 32GB og GSkill Trident Royal ram on a Samsung EVO 980 Pro... just in case this info is needed..
Namaste,,,

So I wanted to follow up after my failed attempt at upgrading the drivers on my Crosshair Hero VIII Hero Wi-Fi (AMD x570) utilizing the [incorrect] ASUS ROG SS3 driver package. As was pointed out to me by monteverdi and confirmed by MoKiChU, I should have used the ASUS ROG SS3|DTS Sound Unbound package instead.
As such, I downloaded the correct file and attempted to proceed with the "Cleanup" process outlined for ASUS ROG SS3|DTS Sound Unbound motherboards. Unfortunately, it seems that my previous attempt has resulted in corruption to the "Realtek High Definition Audio Driver" reference in the Control Panel/Registry. Upon attempting to uninstall the drivers, I receive an error that does not allow the process to proceed.
I've included a screenshot of the relevant registry entry below:
Attachment 88324
Any suggestions as to how to go about removing this gracefully? I want to say that downloading a new driver package from Realtek and attempting to install that will prompt me to uninstall the current version first, though I'm not particularly confident that will affect the desired outcome.
Thanks much! -
04-09-2021, 10:20 PMlirdes
Can you confirm, for the ROG Maximus XI Apex, would it be the ASUS ROG/TUF?PRIME RTK Motherboard?
Thank you for your help! -
04-10-2021, 06:29 AMqijdigoldwingThank you very much for the information. The settings have indeed helped, and tis' always nice to learn more about the deeper workings of this technology.. Turning on MSI mode gave more hours before it started falling out of sync again.. several additional hours. My video has yet to start hiccuping and crashing again, but the gap is again more noticable, so I am giving it more time. I also meant to mention The video driver version is GeForce v465.89 WHQL drivers.. and the Crosshair Hero VIII Non-WiFi motherboard BIOS is 3402.Quote:

the Interrupt priority is as it was before checking the box for MSI Mode. Here is a snapshot of the output.
What else might we try to fix this issue?
And BTW.. the motherboard BIOS is at optimised defaults, no overclocking. The new Ryzen BIOS has changed everything so much I want classes... heh.... before attempting to tweak it..
Namaste...
Qi.
Addendum: Almost 3 hours after rising from rest and resuming my videos... The latency seems to bounce a bit. lag in AV Sync appearing and vanishing, It is better, but the light popping remains. -

Makes absolutely no sense. Ticking that box stopped the warning message on boot .
I also for good measure went into the registry and forced off UAC since it was still showing 1 even though it was on don't notify. That didn't matter either. -

First of all, after much cleaning, and an update to beta bios firmware ( never used beta firmware, and notes this is a general no-no ) and even more fiddling around, I finally fixed the AV Sync and the popping and crackling issue. The drivers and BIOS update helped marginally, but was not effective.
The regular sound drivers for this board, as prescribed above, just didn't work and also did not have any real enhancements so I opted to give the AUDIO_Realtek_UAD_ASUS_ROG_SS3-DTS_MB_v6.0.9137.1 version a try and also added the Sonic apps.. After much fiddling, it finally has remained working. I also used the MSI Mode Tool to set the other devices to MSI mode and still had issues, so I finally tried setting the video card priority to high in the MSI Mode Tool and POOF!!! Problem gone... I also make note that after updating my video drivers the MSI Mode settings for the video card reset so I found the exact key, after reapplying my settings, and exported it for later updates so I can just import and be done with it.. So far, several days later?? no problems what so ever..
The registry location for such devices can be found at this location in regedit: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\P CI
You will be looking for the folders in your particular device under Device Parameters>Interrupt Management and then locating the Affinity Policy and the MessageSignaledInterruptProperties folders.. Both settings are 32bit DWORDS.. I exported from the Interrupt Management folder and just removed what was unnecessary.. The way to find which key it is is to check in the device manager for the "Hardware ID" of the device in question. These codes are different from computer to computer and device to device. Compare the listing in the MSI Mode Tool's listing of Instance ID to verify you have the correct device. This information in the device manager can be found with either a double click or a right click and properties of your selected device. Go to the Details Tab and look for either Device Instance Path or Hardware ID.. Both will have the codes in question. This will lead you to the correct key in your registry. The listing below is just an example of what to keep in the registry patch file.
Here is the export below after cleaning::
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\P CI\VEN_10DE&DEV_1C03&SUBSYS_37771458&REV_A1\4&2ae1 b128&0&0019\Device Parameters\Interrupt Management]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\P CI\VEN_10DE&DEV_1C03&SUBSYS_37771458&REV_A1\4&2ae1 b128&0&0019\Device Parameters\Interrupt Management\Affinity Policy]
"DevicePriority"=dword:00000003
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\P CI\VEN_10DE&DEV_1C03&SUBSYS_37771458&REV_A1\4&2ae1 b128&0&0019\Device Parameters\Interrupt Management\MessageSignaledInterruptProperties]
"MSISupported"=dword:00000001
Save your file as a .REG file for easy importing and whatever name you prefer. These files may be edited with any standard text editor like notepad. Simply Right Click and Edit.
Once again? I just keep this as an exported reg file because I noticed the computer unchecks my selections in the MSI Mode Tool during a driver update for the video card.. Hope this helps everyone..
Namaste...

Hey MoKiChU, you remind me DanielK with Creative drivers years ago... Nice work!
I`m on a ROG STRIX Z390-F GAMING, i`ve installed Realtek Audio Drivers (UAD - ASUS ROG SS3 MB), after rebooting i opened the device manager e noticed that it misses SS3|SSVM VAD Media Driver. Did I do something wrong?
I`ve solved the problem already, downloaded UAD - ASUS ROG SS3-DTS MB, copy/paste OEM_INF_Media_-_ASUS, edited install.bat and it's done.
I think you just might be aware. -

Hi Mokichu,
I have just purchased a ROG STRIX B560-F GAMING WIFI motherboard.
I tried using the SS3 drivers on the Asus website but it causes Cold War to intermittently start. (removing drivers it starts every time)
Realtek Audio Driver V6.0.9088.1 For Windows 10 64-bit.
Improve system stability & Support Windows 10 latest version.
Can these drivers be used on this motherboard?
Kind regards -

I didn't have to pay anything for Dolby Access because a code for it in Microsoft Store came with my RIG 500 headset.
I only use Dolby Access when I use HDMI to my Dolby Atmos soundbar though, because SS3 seems to work a little wonky on it. -

Mokichu, been installing all your updated drivers throughout this forum for a long, long time. You are awesome and very appreciated. A couple questions I've always wondered:
1) I have a z390 STRIX today. If I replaced this one day w/a new Asus z590 or future z690 motherboard w/Realtek chip but did NOT ever install the official Asus Realtek drivers from Asus downloads page, then could just come directly here and install latest Realtek from you w/o needing to do the critical clean up first step? IOW, it's installing the Asus-provided drivers that creates the bind b/t Asus mb and the official Asus Realtek drivers that has to be broken with the Cleanup steps you list. True or false?
2) Are these Realtek drivers specific to Asus motherboard or would they work for any mb that fits the Realtek features ({DTS,unbound, etc) ?
Thanks,
Steve -

I installed the latest over the previous version and there was about 4 which failed. * Is this normal?*
