Hardware requirements (Intel) : ASUS ROG/TUF/PRIME motherboards with Intel 2xx/3xx/4xx/5xx/6xx/7xx series chipsets (except ROG with ALC40xx).

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,

You have an ASUS TUF DTS Custom motherboard, so :

You need Realtek Audio Drivers (UAD - ASUS TUF/PRIME DTS Custom MB) 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.

Thank you for the update MoKiChU! Working great here.

Take care.

[WanaGo]

Thank you for the updated Drivers

Question - why is it that these drivers are not on the Asus MB page where the drivers should reside?
Is there a reason Asus does not update them there?

[WanaGo]

After following the instructions to a T, and uninstalling the packages and rebooting, checking the drivers with Driver Store Explorer (not finding any listed ones), and then running the cmd as Admin, it installed and restarted as it should. It didnt install the items out of the Windows Store though for some reason after the reboot (waited 15 minutes), so I did that manually. Looking in Device Manager, under Audio Inputs and Outputs, there is the "Speakers (Realtek(R) Audio)", and it is a Microsoft Driver, version 10.0.19041.1

Is that right?
I would have thought this should have listed a Realtek driver....

Under Software Components, there are various A-Volute, DTS and Realtek listings in there, and looking at Driver Store Explorer again, there are Realtek, DTS, A-Volute, Nahimic listings now, which there werent before. But why is the audio driver listing at Microsoft?

I tried an update Driver from Device Manager, and got it to look in the folder I extracted this new driver into, but it said it was already using the latest.

I assume it should not be Microsoft and should be Realtek, right?

EDIT:
Or maybe not... this is just the endpoint...

Under Sound, Video and Game Controllers in Device manager, it does list Realtek(R) Audio, and is 6.0.9209.1

So likely is OK..

Hi,

All the devices listed in "Audio inputs and outputs" are system devices, using system drivers which are not meant to be updated (whose version corresponds to the version of your current OS).

Hi,

You are using the correct drivers package (Realtek Audio Drivers (UAD - ASUS ROG SS3-DTS MB)) for your motherboard (ASUS ROG SS3|DTS Sound Unbound motherboard), and this is not a bug, here is the explanation :

The ASUS ROG SS3|DTS Sound Unbound motherboards can have a Rear Audio USB Type-C Port and be bundled with an ROG Audio USB Type-C-to-3.5mm Jack Adapter Cable (like for example ROG Strix B550-XE Gaming WiFi or ROG Strix B550-E Gaming) :



When a Rear Audio USB Type-C Port existing, the Type-C driver is used (hdxasustc.inf, tc for Type-C).

In your case you don't have this Type-C port, you have an optical S/PDIF port instead, hence the fact that you will don't use the Type-C driver anyway :

Type-C :



Optical S/PDIF :

MB Asus ROG Crosshair VIII Dark Hero AMD X570. It says SupremeFX S1220 CODEC on the box sticker. And at the box bottom: SupremeFX S1220 CODEC, ESS ES9023P High Definition DAC.

Do I follow the "Realtek Audio Drivers (UAD - ASUS ROG SS3-DTS MB)" track?
