Hardware requirements (Intel) : ASUS ROG motherboards with Intel 5xx/6xx/7xx/8xx series chipsets with ALC40xx codec.

Note : In order to know which drivers package to use, match the audio specifications of your motherboard with the apps or ask me.

TIPS :

If you want to manage the drivers (remove old/unused drivers for example) that you have in your Windows DriverStore
Use Driver Store Explorer (Right click on "Rapr.exe" > Run as administrator).

If you want better interrupts delivery latency
Enable MSI (Message Signaled-based Interrupts) mode on all your supported devices (see the column "supported modes") with
MSI Mode Utility (Right click on "MSI_Mode_Utility_v3.exe" > Run as administrator).

If you experience crackling, popping, audio stutter
Disable hibernation (Fast Startup included).

Hi @MoKiChU 

Thanks for the good drivers. I'm using an X870E Hero, Dolby access works very well.

The plify level is missing in the RTKuwp.

I installed an old package over it from x670E Hero

package name: e78f7eb960014251aba981658cb8efda

plify is now available, can you somehow incorporate it into the driver package?

Hi I have Z690-E Gaming Wifi so it should be : SS3 Driver. 

I applied Every step with extreme care but when Im on the step of installing the driver I get this error :

Hi,

You have an ASUS ROG SS3|DTS Sound Unbound motherboard with ALC40xx codec, so :

You need Realtek USB Audio Drivers (UAD - ASUS ROG SS3-DTS) from the first post of this thread.

Follow scrupulously your CLEANUP process then your INSTALL process, for the next drivers packages that I would release, you will can directly follow your UPDATE process.

Note : If your install issue persist, please refer to these 2 posts (the first then the second if necessary) to troubleshoot :

Thank you for response, I have done what's on the guide and the setup went through.

Program that's working : DTS Sound Unbound.

Program that doesn't work :

Sonic Studio doesn't work, NOPKEY ERROR.

Realtek Audio Console ; Impossible to connect to RPC SERVICE.

I think that's the two crapwares (i say it bc i don't want, but) that have to be downloaded separately, from store.

If you have Realtek USB2.0 Audio in Device Manager, you need to update the driver. This is a Windows driver and will not work with Realtek Control and SS3/SR3. See this link:

I found a solution.

My problem was that the driver was never actually installed because of the presence of Windows Realtek Driver.

So what I did is that I changed driver install policy from gpedt.msc :

Computer configuration >Administrative Templates > System >Device Installation>Device Installation Restriction>

allow administrators to override device installation restriction policies : ENABLED.

Second thing was to not include Drivers in windows update :

Computer Configuration>Administrative Templates>Windows Components>Windows Update>Manage updates offered from Windows Updates

Do not include drivers with Windows Updates : ENABLED​

After that I deleted Windows realtek driver from device manager and restarted. I repeated the clean step after restart just in case, you know that it'll work if you see no sound after restart.

I did my installation and it worked like a charm. Thank you all for your help.
