No sound from B450 Pro4 Realtek Audio driver

Hi everyone,

I've been wrestling with a driver issue for a couple of days now, so thought I'd post here and see if anyone can help.

I am using a B450 Pro4 motherboard, with an AMD 3600X CPU. Until recently I have been using the sound provided by HDMI from my GPU, however I want to be able to use my rear panel audio ports for a headset.

I downloaded and installed the drivers and Realtek Audio Console app listed on the B450 Pro4 download page (https://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/B450%20Pro4/#Download).

My computer seems happy with the driver, and says that it is functioning correctly. It shows as plugged in, and audio can be seen playing in the Volume Mixer, however no sound can be heard.

I can confirm that my headset is functioning correctly, having tested it on another system. I can also confirm that a different headset also fails to play on this system.

I have undertaken every step found at https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4520288/windows-10-fix-sound-problems, but to no avail.

I'm at a loss at what else to try, does anybody have any advice?

Thanks.

im guessing its windows issue


e.g. down by your windows desktop clock left click the speaker icon and check it says realtek (im guessing its still saying the name of your monitor and then amd high def audio after)

simply change this to realtek

Thanks, but no, I'm selecting the Realtek Audio option.

Hi everyone.
I have the exaxt same problem. Hard to believe that the sound is blown. It was working fine for 3 weeks and I never used the front jacks. Actually I never connected the front jack wires to the board until today. Nor rear neither front jacks are working anymore. HDMI sound is working fine.

For most computer users using Windows operating systems, the default audio driver is run by Realtek HD Audio Drivers. Realtek£™s High Definition Audio Manager is a tool used to control sound on desktop or laptop computers, and it£™s the default option for Windows 10 systems. The program comes packed with great features that produce amazing sound results. If you are facing any issue regarding Realtek audio driver this guide can really help to fix the driver problems.
