So i notice it seems like windows has its own audio driver that forces itself on top of everything else. i remember having a realtek audio pop up with all the settings for surround and such when you plugged in an audio device in windows 7. Whatever happened to that? I am on windows 11, using z690 motherboard sound panel, but i have logitech z506 speakers. Using the rears are very echoy and sound like they are running off the regular front speaker signal but bad sounding. Is there any way to get an old pop up realtek panel to force surround instead of this lack of settings from windows?
