I have repackaged newer UAD(Universal Audio Driver) drivers using Realtek's Setup API and the (unofficial) Realtek driver repo@
https://github.com/alanfox2000/realtek-universal-audio-driver.
Make sure to first *UNINSTALL* the old HDA drivers.
This is VERY important!These are specifically crafted for the Maximus IX HERO and contain:
- UAD driver with correct Hardware Ids support.
- Required Realtek Software Components
- A-Volute/Nahimic Software Component + ASUS OEM INF Extension(+ ISST)(otherwise audio effects do not work). This also installs NahimicService and the Windows Store Nahimic app will probably work too
- Realtek Audio Control Windows Store app(Will automatically detect ASUS board and change to ROG ASUS skin)
- Automated install using Realtek's Setup API
All drivers are unmodified ASUS/Realtek/A-Volute signed drivers.
I've tested it on my IX HERO for a week and there have been no known issues, everythings works as intended.
