Realtek Audio Balance Problem
Hi all,
I've been having this issue ever since I updated my Realtek drivers from Asus' website. The problem is my audio is now unbalanced, and the left speaker sounds much louder than the right one. It also feels like most of the bass level is coming from the left channel as well. I have the same problem if I use my headphones on the front audio jack.
After many hours trying to resolve this, I've narrowed it down to the audio "Enhancements" function, if I turn that off, the balance goes back to normal but I lose much of the audio quality that I like with the ALC1150. Plus, everything was working normally before, so I see no reason why I'd have to disable anything at all.
Things I've tried so far:
- Reinstalling previous audio drivers, and also clean installing multiple new drivers, I'm currently on version 6.0.1.7968 and still having the same issue.
- Pluggin/unplugging my speakers, check cable connections, tried different audio sources, different jacks.
- Tried changing the "Default Format" to different settings.
- I've also did an in-place upgrade to reinstall Windows 10.
Right now the only workaround I have is to set the balance 3 points towards the right channel, but I'm getting much quieter sound levels and I lose half the bass, so the final audio balance doesn't feel right at all.
I was wondering whether any of you have had such an issue before, or if you have any idea on how to troubleshoot or resolve it.
Thank you.
