OS requirements : Windows 10 64 bit or more recent.
Hardware requirements (AMD) : ASUS ROG/TUF/PRIME motherboards with AMD 3xx/4xx/5xx/6xx series chipsets (except ROG with ALC40xx).
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).

I tried again with these update drivers and the issue is still there. I also disabled hibernation and enabled MSI. Considering at least 4 of my friends have the exact same issue on very different hardware, I'd say it's not something related to my configuration. I'm going to use these drivers for a bit anyway.

Hi,

If that doesn't fix or reduce your issue, open a ticket with ASUS Support (and/or you can post in ROG Care section : ROG Care).

Hello and I apologize for my stupidity, but I do not know what type of drivers I need for ROG STRIX B550-E GAMING?

Hi,

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

You need Realtek Audio Drivers (UAD - ASUS ROG SS3-DTS 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.

Much appreciated!
P.S: It is necessary to add from myself that I have ASUS ROG SS3 | DTS Sound Unbound motherboards, I do not know why, but according to the first post I got errors during installation, but on the ASUS ROG SS3 | DTS Sound Unbound, EVERYTHING IS EXCELLENT!

No, you can't use drivers package unsuitable for your motherboard.

So, if you don't want/use DTS Sound Unbound, just don't install it when you follow INSTALL process.

I'm assuming the Z490-G uses

Realtek Audio Drivers (UAD - ASUS ROG SS3-DTS MB) :
Drivers : 6.0.9231.1 WHQL [31/08/2021]

Considering the Asus driver mentions "Support SS3VAC+ DTSS Models"

Note : With regard to ASUS products, if Third Party app using an APO (SS3, DTS Sound Unbound, DTS:X Ultra, DTS Headphone:X v1, DTS Custom ...) is installed, the equalization is done via Third Party app (The equalization is done via Realtek Audio Control/Console app only for SPDIF).
