Hi,
Your initial request concerns a issue with RB6 and at no time did you tell me about your need for Bass management option from HDA drivers.
Anyway, as I explained to you, the HDA drivers are not suitable to your motherboard (don't be surprised if it doesn't work properly).
If you are talking about Realtek Audio Control which works with UAD drivers, check that you fulfilled the OS requirements (Windows 10 64 bit 1903) from UAD drivers thread, and that you followed scrupulously the INSTALL process dedicated to your motherboard with cleanup step (and therefore that you used the correct .cmd).
Note : Be aware that (if you are actually talking about UAD drivers) :- If you install/use Sonic Studio III : The equalizer of Realtek Audio Control/Console is hidden and deported on Sonic Studio III (Basic Mode > Equalizer > Custom).
- If you don't install/use Sonic Studio III : The equalizer of Realtek Audio Control/Console is present and functional.
Hi and thanks for your quick reply.
We are talking 2 different things actually.
I got the mentioned issue with RB6 Siege using this driver here, which you pointed out, is not the correct one for me.
I did try this one, because the Crosshair VIII's driver package (DRV_Audio_RTK_UWD_SS3_VAC_DTSS_W10_64_VER6018751_20190821R) does not give me the "bass management" option which I need (it's just not there - I didn't install Sonic Studio btw.).
Before updating to this driver here, I used a very old Realtek driver made for the Maximus X Formula (Audio_Realtek_Legacy_TP_VER6018468_20190402R), which was actually working flawless for me.
The driver you suggested, is not working for me at all. After the first reboot (done by the .cmd) sound works but only stereo, since it shows just the green audio port. After another reboot, it shows all audio ports, but sound is no longer working (at all) - it says "an error has occoured" when I try to play a test sound from the audio driver window.
Tried the installation a couple of times, it's just not working. Oh and I should mention, that I revert to my previous config using Acronis True Image, so there is no old driver crap left on my system. Used Driver Store Explorer as well, but there is just none of the mentioned drivers. The only audio driver installed is AMDs.
I am running 1909 btw.

UAD drivers don't have Bass Management option.
Audio_Realtek_Legacy_TP_VER6018468_20190402R = HDA drivers.
You did not respond to my check request : Did you followed scrupulously the CLEANUP process then the INSTALL process dedicated to your motherboard (ASUS ROG SS3|DTS Sound Unbound motherboard) with cleanup step (and therefore that you used the correct .cmd : Install_SS3DTS.cmd) ?
If yes, after installing SSVM (Sonic Studio Virtual Mixer, which is in the drivers package and will be install whether you install SS3 or not) for the first time, it switches itself as Playback/Recording default devices. Remember to set your usual Playback/Recording devices by default (and, if you don't plan to use SSVM, disable the SSVM Playback/Recording devices).
Hi again,
I thought it was clear that I did follow the describtion to the point... But here is what I did:
1) Uninstalled the "Realtek HD Driver" + Reboot. (Note: I didn't have Realtek Control App, Sonic Studio, or any other audio app installed, just the driver itself.)
2) I ran DSE, you can see what it showed me here:
3) I ran "Install_ROG_SS3DTS.cmd" and watched it install and reboot my system.
For your followup-question:
My Realtek device was still the default device, but with only one port (green). Disabled the SSVM, but it didn't help.
It looks to me as if the driver doesn't like my hardware. 😞

If your UAD drivers are installed correctly, you should not see "Realtek High Definition Audio" in Device Manager but rather "Realtek(R) Audio".
Once the .cmd has been launched and the restart of your PC has been done, show me your drivers installed on Driver Store Explorer.
Hi,
I just went back to my clean and working state again.
As you can see in the pic , it does say "Realtek(R) Audio" after I ran the .cmd and reboot. And it is the correct driver number (6.0.8959.1) as well.
