    Driver issue. You need to check and installed it properly. I had that problem in past while setting up the sounds.

    Realtek

    Also note, some people like myself. Realtek uninstalls the driver on the first try after reboot. Install it again if it doesn't work.

    Maybe you have a loose wire connection

    just to make sure this isnt user error

    do I use Vista_Win7_R249_x64
    or the Vista_Win7_R249

    both say they work with Win 7 64bit

    make sure realtek hd is in the uninstall list. That way you know its properly installed. You also might need to disable the second "sound" and set to default on the first one. There's a guide somewhere around here.
