I just installed Radeon 2020 and it seemed to basically erase the choice of sound coming through .y monitor. I have tried everything the only thing that seems to work is factory reset. I'm wondering if there are any experts out there to help. It seems to not recognize that my HDMI is plugged through my GPU so no sounds comes out.

Others have complained about this as well ... it seems like a driver bug that may need to be fixed. There's lots of suggested "workarounds' on the net, some seem to help for some users.

You can try this first, just to rule out the obvious ... https://community.amd.com/thread/186393

If no dice on that, you can check through this google search results and see if you can find anything useful...

Thanks I'll try plus my friend has same build and Radeon 2020 and his works perfectly fine


The issue seems to only apply to a handful of people, it seems possible that it is due to a conflict between old and new driver or windows and new driver or windows trying to interfere with AMD audio driver or vice versa.

Finding a utility (I think AMD has a built in one) to do a complete wipe on the video drivers and reinstalling them might help.

Is there any way to copy all my driver's or my hardrive to his since mine works?
