Asus ROG STRIX Z690-A no audio except through bluetooth

Hello there,

I found out just yesterday that bluetooth only works through the wifi extender so I hooked that up and bluetooth worked and I could connect a bluetooth audio device and listen to something. Yet nothing else works like a headset connected through cable.

I also got a sound card which worked perfectly fine on my previous build Asus Essence STX II 24-bit 192 kHz Sound Card (Essence STX II) - PCPartPicker

Is this compatible with my power 850W and also with my mobo? I plugged the power cable from this sound card into the SATA area that has connectors for my HDD's for example. Regular audio through the motherboard directly doesn't work either.

I've installed all windows updates and drivers that the Armoury crate listed. I've also tried installing the one listed on the asus website itself: ROG STRIX Z690-A GAMING WIFI D4 | ROG Strix | Gaming Motherboards｜ROG - Republic of Gamers｜ROG Global

My build: PC Builder - Intel Core i7-12700K, Radeon RX 6600, Corsair Obsidian Series 800D ATX Full Tower - PCPartPicker

i've flashed my bios through windows update: ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC. - Firmware - 10.1.2.1720 is the one I downloaded and use now.
