Hi everyone.
Not sure if this is the right place, but I lost patience to look for another forum so...
In short, I've had it up to here with Realtek. Yesterday I connected my computer to our TV via DHMI to play a DVD (our PLaystation is broken). We had to disable the internal speakers before the computer understood it was supposed to give both sound and image to our TV. After disconnecting HDMI I enabled the speakers again but the sound was all distorted: too sharp, unnatural emphaisis on low frequencies etc. All the settings were fine so I ended up re-installing the driver again. Now it's even worse. Music plays fine again, but the rest of the sounds (Skype, mail, Internet, speech) are all abnormally loud, and they even come with an echo: first the normal volume sound, then the loud echo.
What on earth do I do now? It's as if two devices are simultaneously producing system sounds and I just don't know how that's possible. Windows says everything is working correctly, but then again they say Windows 8.1 is good too...
