Question Quiet audio - B450 Tomahawk Motherboard.

[MachoFantastico]

Hi everyone,

So this as been driving me mad. Recently build a new setup with a Tomahawk B450 motherboard and a Ryzen 5 3600, despite some of the usual issues everything as been great. Trouble is the audio out of my headphones is so low it can be hard to even hear anything. I have tried a variety of things, included installing all latest Realtek drivers, making sure everything is installed and ready but still the audio level remains the same. In the past it was easy for me to jump into Sound on Windows 10 and use the loud enhancement feature to improve volume quality but that doesn't appear to do anything and when Realtek is installed it disappears entirely. Messed around with all sorts of settings but nothing seems to fix the issue. Now I do have alternative options (using my TV audio for example) but I would love to know if this is on purpose or if it can be fixed.

Thanks in advance.

What headphones are you using?

Front panel audio or are headphones plugged into the rear of mobo?

I'm using the HyperX Cloud Stinger wired headset with them plugged into the back of the motherboard.
