Asus’s new drivers are 8.66, and they don’t work properly. OK, so recently I upgraded to Windows 10 and updated my drivers and found that the tinny sound was back.
#Conexant smartaudio hd windows 10 not working how to
UPDATE: The problem is back with Asus’s latest update… here’s how to fix it AGAIN… Grr.īut then I discovered these drivers, released January 10, 2015: “ ASUS Notebook Conexant Audio Driver 8.65.53.57 for Windows 8.1 64-bit” I tried updating my drivers but Windows said there were no updates. The solution always given is ‘wait for your sound card manufacturer – in this case Conexant Smartaudio HD – to update their drivers’. Researching, I discovered various complaints that Windows 8.1 has messed up the audio, meaning that a lot of sound cards no longer give low bass or subwoofer sounds to the speakers or headphones.
Curiously, my expensive headphones sounded tinny when plugged into the laptop, despite sounding great when using my iPhone. I have an Asus laptop with Windows 8.1 (and this problem also exists I Windows 10).
