Realtek onboard audio stops working, no sound
Hi all,
Recently moved apartments, and as part of that I shut down and packed up my computer. Upon getting it set up at the new place, I found that 1) the rear panel audio was now displaying "Not plugged in" and not producing sound, 2) the front panel headphone jack was no longer working, and 3) I had numerous playback devices from AMD, presumably for the HDMI audio.
I've found several other threads online describing a similar problem, but I haven't been able to fix my issue.
I've tried a few basic troubleshooting things, in isolation as well as in combination:
- Confirmed the speakers worked
- Uninstalling the Realtek High Definition Audio device from Device Manager without removing the driver
- Uninstalling the Realtek device and removing the driver files
- Installing the latest Realtek drivers
- Installing the latest AMD drivers for my graphics card
- System Restore to a known good date
- Editing the registry to disable jack detection - this did allow me to set Speakers as default but didn't otherwise help
I'm completely out of ideas, and considering just buying a sound card, but I thought I ought to ask here first. Any information or suggestions would be very helpful, I've attached a DxDiag export. Thanks!
