Will update driver, restart, then it will show Realtek Audio and it will work, but will again do an X and then there is no Realtek audio in Device manager. Only High Def Audio driver and NVIDIA audio driver and both say working properly. I have done the updates and sometimes it works sometimes it don't.</P> Mon, 08 May 2023 19:37:29 GMT Veteran8597 2023-05-08T19:37:29Z https://community.intel.com/t5/Mobile-and-Desktop-Processors/Audio/m-p/1484240#M63064 <P>I have an Alienware Laptop, not sure if I did something or not, but the sound will go out, a red X through speaker icon after I pause a video and will surf the web I come back to video and nothing.
