Hello! I'm using Dell G7 7588 and have just re-installed the Windows 10 1809.
I have installed all necessary drivers from Dell support site but then my audio doesn't work. Maxx Audio when launches say "Audio driver is not up to date, please check for windows update". Intel Smart Sound Technology's also not working.
My temporary solution: Right click to Intel Smart Sound, choose Update drivers -> Browse -> Let me pick... -> High Definition Audio controller (like this guy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=szAy9rDRuzo). The intel Smart Sound are replaced by High Definiation Audio Controller. My audio works, but when I plug the microphone, the MaxxAudio pop-up doesn't appear and my computer still plays audio by the speaker, not microphone. I have updated the latest BIOS, latest firmware.
The High Definition Audio Controller info:
Here is the list of thing I downloaded and installed from DELL site, do I miss something? Dell Update utility says it's up to date.
list of all installed drivers is the "drivers.txt" file.
Thank you!

I have installed the latest Realtek driver from Microsoft catalog: https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Search.aspx?q=6.0.1.8627
Nowa MaxxAudio works and everything is fine.
It seems a problem of Dell drivers because Maxx Audio requires latest drivers from Windows update.
Though the issue is from Dell, i hope this post will be useful for other users.

You should contact DELL, as they are solely responsible for support of your laptop.
