    So, I tried updating my audio drivers to the current ones listed on Realtek's website and noticed that 5.1 audio along with my sub-woofer no longer register during audio playback.

    I re-installed the drivers from the driver CD and it still won't register.

    Any ideas on how to fix this?

    Edit: So now the center and rear pair work when disabled? ? Still nothing from the sub...

    Bump.

    When using my Razer Carcharias headset, I can hear the subwoofer when 5.1 audio is enabled, but not through the internal speakers. Also, center/rear pair work when enable, instead of disabled.
