In this case, I recommend disabling it. Perhaps your DTS application version has been updated automatically and needs to be downgraded. I will leave a link to the correct version of DTS Sound Unbound that will suit your needs. Your computer may need to be restarted after installation.
It's working now, thank you. ^^

Hello, is it possible to separate headphones and speakers? IDT
Yup. The generic driver default is already to operate with independent endpoints.

Hello.

I made the default instalation (Dolby + DTS X + SoundCreative 2)

Dolby ask me to connect a speaker (since I have my soundbar connected to my TV via eArch)
DTS and SoundBlaster doesn't detect my speakers either.

Only Sonic Studio seems to work on my computer.

Windows 11 latest insider release
I have same problems on my lenovo pc with windows 10.Have any idea to fix that?

Hi @AAF Optimus your drivers work fine for AMD HDMI out but for some reason the drivers don't install properly and have to be manually selected from Device Manager.
Also the driver for Realtek fails to install for some reason for Speakers(Realtek Audio)
Please help me out as its been too annoying i have reinstalled the drivers 4-5 times

From the name the device has acquired, there are still installed extensions and/or software components that need to be removed.

NEW DCH DRIVERS RELEASED IN GITHUB
@skymeows MORE DETAILS IN 1st PAGE

ATTENTION: You will need to uninstall the currently installed version before continuing with this installation. A condition has been imposed for this due to problems reported by some users.

ATTENTION: Before installing this modified driver, be sure to remove any and all residues from previous Realtek audio drivers or even if there are residues from previous versions of my mods, if they persist. For this you will need the DriverStoreExplorer (by @lostindark). Remove any drivers whose vendor is "A-Volute", "Dolby", "DTS", "Creative", "AAF Optimus", etc in the Sound, Video and Game Controllers, Extensions, Software Components and Audio Processing Objects categories.

Those who want only Realtek material, just choose the panel option (HDA or UAD) and deselect the rest.

I had recently reset Windows weird there shouldn't be any files. Is there any other way to remove them? Because i have used driver store explorer to remove the drivers and uninstalled the modified driver before reinstalling

resets are not as thorough as a format, files can potentially be left behind - shouldnt be, but potentially

Clean install after uninstalling with DDU, and neither DTSU, DT:XU or Sonic Studio 3 is working. Any help?

Edit: I went with the default settings from the setup

Can anyone confirm if they've gotten Dolby Digital output format to work with an Nvidia Ampere card on Windows 10 21H2?

I uninstalled the Nvidia HD Audio Driver on my RTX 3080, then installed AAF DCH only selecting the Dolby Digital option. I didn't elect to install any of the optional audio processor software. I rebooted the PC and tested audio playback, PCM audio output formats play audio, but if I switch the output format to Dolby Digital no sound is played back and my receiver doesn't detect a Dolby Digital signal at all. When I switch to Dolby Digital output format in Windows it also changes the Audio Channels setting from 5.1 to Stereo. If I try to switch it to 5.1 it just says 'The format is not supported by this audio device.'

I'm able to bitstream Dolby Digital using the original Nvidia driver, but that only works on movies I'm watching and I want to get to work system wide for my video games. I'm going with Dolby Digital because I'm using my TV's ARC port. I've also tried the Dolby Access software along with the native Nvidia driver, which does output Dolby Digital in my setup, but that is a no go since it has horrible audio delay between 100-250ms.

Same situation I was in. Use DTS instead. Presuming you can. My fresh Windows 10 install layout was to go into Ferather's DTS APO4 installer, just rip out the .dlls (of which only the Interactive, dtsint64.dll, library is needed for) and registry info that matters, then use the ol' stand-by, the Fx Configurator program, to install DTS's encoder protocol as the endpoint FX, aaaaand that should be it. If you want me to make something rudimentary to set all this up, it'd take like 15 minutes tops.

Thank you for the suggestion. I did try DTS, but Samsung stopped supporting it outright. My Q70A wont even passthrough a DTS bitstream. I wound up using APO Driver and its FX configurator to add Dolby Digital to the existing Nvidia Audio driver. It still wont let you choose more than 2 channels in the Windows sound manager, but it does actually output in 5.1 as long as you specify that in whatever application you are using. It works fine for movies and games now with no audio delay. In games that don't have an option of specifying surround sound it only outputs 2 discreet channels in a 5.1 stream, so only my left and right speakers are used instead of being up mixed like a native 2 channel stream. It's definitely more functional than before and I don't have to remove the Nvidia Audio driver.

Thank you AAF Optimus for making this HDAudio driver mod. It looks like it works great for a lot of other people, just not in my specific setup. I hope I'm not out of line sharing the alternate that worked for me.

even default installation still gives me crackling sound while using music or youtube audio, i use hp omen 15 from 2019 laptop. waiting for your advice

the sound crackling is happening on one side only, the left one. ive tested the earphones on other devices and it is fine. i was on windows 10 and had the same problem. did install of windows 11 still same problem. one of your older drivers works fine, this one...AAFAudioPackDCHFix-6.0.9003.1 but it is tricky to install for me since sometimes it works then other times it doesnt
