Intel Smart Sound Technology Driver Windows 11

[Camie Fons]

Hello. I normally run Linux on my Framework (Arch), and I have no issues. However, due to an online exam and lockdown browser (college student), I need to use windows. I was able to install it a few weeks ago on a 250GB expansion card using Rufus and Windows-to-go, and after installing the driver bundle, everything works except sound.

@nrp Sadly no change. I uninstalled the Realtek driver beforehand, to give it a good shot, but the behavior is still the same as with the beta bundle (after reinstalling Realtek). The speaker and mic show up, but the speaker is non-functional, and the microphone is completely dead.

@nrp
Might be a good idea to link to stand-alone driver packages alongside the bundle installer. May make it easier to troubleshoot driver issues between bundle releases if there are any newer drivers that are not yet in the latest bundle.

Hi, I downloaded the latest Beta drivers for Windows 11 from Framework site. Using an unzip program extract the individual drivers. Install the realtek audio driver and restart machine. I tried various other things but then uninstalled the realtek driver and the sound returned.
