Audio problem with Logitech Z 506 5.1
5 hours ago, JZStudios said:Possible. I'd try the jack from both ends, and plug a sound source into the speakers and some headphones into the PC and ensure both are working. It could be one jack or the other.
I think if it was a driver issue it probably wouldn't work at all, and if you're only running stereo I don't think it should be an issue.
I think i finally fixed it, after trying for 5 hours.
There was a big windows update available, updated it, speakers still wouldn't work. I uninstalled and installed countless drivers, didn't work. Some people with the same problem were talking about realtek audio control but i didn't have it since windows 8. Found the .exe file but it would open and close right after. Tried other fixes and nothing. I don't really know what fixed it cuz i did multiple things, but i think it was either ccleaner or other program that i downloaded to fix drives(can't remember the name because i already deleted it, didn't really trust it). It deleted multiple realtek files, i'm talking like 30 realtek drivers or something. After that realtek was fully uninstalled,with no hidden files. Installed new drivers, restarted and finally it recognized my speakers and had sound but only stereo. Still didn't have realtek control panel, but found the .exe file and this time it fully opened after installing microsoft net framework 4.5 and some other stuff(i had it before but i guess windows update fucked it up). Changed some options on the control panel and i now have stereo and 5.1.
I'm sure it was a window update that messed the drivers up. Time to remove all the bloatware that windows installed again.
Not gonna mark as solved just in case something happens. If nothing happens after 1 or 2 days i'll mark it as solved. Thanks anyway for trying to help.
