Realtek HD audio - problems spread like a disease
Hey everyone,
This onboard soundcard is really getting on my nerves. But I'm too lazy at the moment to look for a good new soundcard (my x-treme music died - R.I.P.).
So to the problem:
I have speakers, a microphone and headphones, the speakers work fine and the microphone used to work fine. But the headphones always got recognised as speakers, except when I put them in the front jack, but there they make terrible cracking like sounds.
As I have the latest driver I didn't see any hope in getting the front panel to work properly, but why shouldn't it accept the backjacks? From other forums I learned that it should work.
I tried fiddeling around so I unplugged all three (headphones, mic, and speakers) and suddenly it even stopped accepting my microphone! it just comes with the message "This device type is not supported!". How stupid is that? I didn't change anything at that point, I just unplugged it and plugged it in again.
So please please tell me: How can I get my microphone to work and my headphones as headphones with this Ffff.... 'different' soundcard.
