Hello everyone!
After several days of desperate attempts to install Realtek Audio Manager on my Asus Rog Matrix B660-A Gaming, I despaired. The driver is always installed in the x86 folder by default.
Auto-update installs the Realtek audio console, but in this console it is not possible to turn on the sound on headphones and speakers at the same time.
I have reinstalled the Realtek drivers a million times and reviewed all the video guides.
Who had a similar problem and how did you solve it?

OS: Windows 11
System
Asus Rog Strix B660-A Gaming
CPU: Intel I5-12400F
RAM: Kingston Fury Beast 32 GB (2 X 16) DDR4 3200 MHz
GPU: Nvidia 2080.

Any help welcome!

I don't remember any time since the invention of Windows over 30 years ago when you could select more than one device as your default sound output. Its simply not designed that way. You might be able to connect a Y splitter cable to either of the sound output jacks and then connect both the speakers and headphones but there's no way of knowing if that would work and it might damage the computer because of too low impedance. Or perhaps if your speakers have an output jack for headphones they could be connected there.

Managed to get it working with these two options. Front panel detection off if only want headphones. This is to play same thing across hf and speakers. Playback devices second option if want to play two different sources of audio but don't know how to make that work or how to prioritise second speaker output to something else, think it's flawed.

Im running z590 Tuf Gaming, got my drivers from here. Looks like you'll have to do the same. Realtek is a bit of a mess, lucky for this guy and his efforts.


Your driver and instructions is listed under Rog/Tuf/Prime section. Follow instructions exactly.
