Anyone else has the Gigabyte X570 Aorus Ultra? The sound output worked for a few days and now it is completely messed up, the sound is like a radio down the hall fading in and out. Reinstall latest driver didn't help. Any ideas? I would rather not rip the machine apart again.

Audio out from video card works but it is not ideal.

I have a Gigabyte X570 Aorus Pro Wifi. Looks like they have the same Realtek audio solution.

My audio was a bit funky at the beginning. Some things that I had to work on to get everything smooth on both a) SteelSeries wireless headset, and b) Logitech analog 2.1 speakers.

1. Make sure you have the setup in both the digital and analog sections of the audio setup. My digital output would get stuck on the 'sewer pipe' preset.

2. Turns out there was a minor conflict with the SteelSeries audio output. Took a few reboots to get the digital setup correct.

Finally,
3. I was not always outputting to the proper output flavor on the speaker (left click on the speaker) on the Windows 10 taskbar. I wasn't scrolling far enough to get the correct analog output. I believe my setup has 6 or 7 output choices. I was expecting maybe 3.

Wonders of technology. Seems to be working now. Been working for a week and I didn't do a thing.
