Thank you erpster. First post updated.
I have tried many different version for my ALC 889 realtek audio chip, and most don't work, the ones that do work only provide 2.0 channels.
The drivers install without an error but never shows 5.1 dolby option once installed. How do I fix this?
The 139.9 MB of the 6.0.1.8447 driver with the Conexant Audio Processing Objects (APO) sounds a lot better, than the old 6.0.1.7944 HP provided and had a lot of problems since the Anniversary Update!
No distortion any more, fuller sound!
My verdict: I'll give ★★★★★ to the 6.0.1.8447 driver
I want to cry. I've bought a new motherboard, ASUS ROG STRIX X470-F, it comes with a newfangled 1220A audio codec. Functioning audio is extremely important to me as I have lots of audio conferences online. I've tried so many different drivers, currently I am on 6.0.1.8447, installed from the link on the first page, and used the HDXASNahimic.inf to install the drivers.
My problem: the front microphone input has constantly choppy or volume-modulating levels. I can talk really quieTALLOFASUDDENITSREALLYLOUdwaitnoitsquietagain. I've tried combinations of "Tie up same type of input jacks" or "Separate all input jacks", I've tried the other options for "mute the rear device when front headphone is plugged in" and "make front and rear output devices playback two different audiostreams", I've got my sound format @ 16bit/48kHz (default).
I don't know what to do. I've already ordered a Xonar DGX because it's that bad, but I have to wait two more days. This is my
first upgrade since a 2600K some 6 or 7 years ago, and am regretting it
Does anyone have this same issue? I've seen it posted around (for example here: ALC1220 Sound Issue) but I haven't found a fix. When I stumbled upon the newer drivers here I thought I would be saved, but no, it is not good at all.
I'm not using a high impedance mic (I think... its an old Astro A40 headset, maybe 6 years old at this point, its never given me an issue). Are you using front or rear jacks? I filed an issue with ASUS support, we'll see what they say.
I think the driver download for Windows 10 version 1803 and Later Servicing Drivers has been updated in here:
