L channel sound comes through both L and R speakers after installing IDT High Definition Audio Codec

I noticed a sound problem on my laptop. The R channel works as expected but the L channel is split between the L and R speakers. After checking several different possibilities I narrowed the problem down to the IDT High Definition Audio Codec that I downloaded from the HP driver support page for my notebook model and operating system.
I uninstalled the IDT High Definition Audio Codec and restarted. This forced Windows to resort to using its generic "HD Audio Device" default. When I did this the sound was equally split between the L and R speakers as I would expect - L channel 100% though L speaker, R channel 100% though R speaker. I then re-downloaded the IDT High Definition Audio Codec from HP (sp59654.exe), re-installed it, and restarted. Immediately the sound problem was back - while the R channel comes 100% though the R speaker, the L channel is split between L and R speakers.
Please note this has nothing to do with adjusting speaker "balance". Both L and R channel volumes were set to 100% while investigating this problem. It's definitely some sort of incompatibilty between the IDT High Definition Audio Codec and Windows 8 64-bit or the sound hardware in the HP Envy DV6.
Here are my details:
IDT High Definition Audio Codec
Publisher: IDT
Date: 8/19/2012
Version: 6.10.6425.0
Notebook
HP Envy DV6-7200
Windows 8 64-bit

Here is what I would recommend you trying. Go to device manager and uninstall the audio driver. Once it is uninstalled, go to the device manager toolbar and select "Scan for hardware changes". After it completes, reboot the computer. Once the computer is rebooted, test the audio and let me know if that helped.

HP Probook 4530s IDT High Definition Audio Codec Speakers

As the title states:
HP Probook 4530s
Windows 7 OS
IDT High Definition Audio Codec
The laptop quit playing through it's speakers, but will play through the headphone jacks when plugged in. Tolerated it for about 8 months now. Recently, while playing with it I noticed that if the System is set to headphones and you double click on the slider it begins to play through the laptop speakers for approximately 1 second. You have to keep double clicking to maintain sound through the speakers.
Now, when I go to Speakers/HP Properties it shows that the sound is to the bottom 3.5mm jack & front 3.5mm jack. This laptop has NO bottom 3.5mm jack on it, only the front 3.5mm jack.
I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling, looked for new drivers and thought about installing an old driver but not sure how far back to go. Any suggestions would be a great help here. If you need more info please let me know what you need and where to find it and I'll provide it. Now that I know the speakers actually do work, I'd love to be able to use them again.

Now to help out with troubleshooting this here is a pic and what I think is going on:
Notice that the jacks are allegedly on the bottom and front for the speakers, only issue is there is no jack on the bottom and the front jack is for the headphones. the 10-18-2012 update that HP is tossing around ignores the fact that there is no bottom jack for the HP 4530s, g7, pavilion and dv7. I've had all of these over the years. It seems someone wrote a driver that is one size fits all and totally missed that these speakers are located someplace else.
So the question is, how do we reassign the location so it puts sound to the speakers?

Keep having to disable and re-enable my IDT High Definition Audio CODEC, what's wrong?

Hi!
I have a Pavillion Touchsmart Sleekbook 14" with Windows 8 that I bought new about 7 months ago. I have not yet updated to Windows 8.1.
Recently I have noticed that my audio will suddenly stop working. This typically happens when my computer has been sleeping and I start it up again. The audio does not come out through the internal speakers or headphones when I plug them in. I have not tried external speakers but I imagine the result would be the same.
If I go into my Device Manager and disable and re-enable the IDT High Definition Audio CODEC the sound returns. All sound devices I have listed are related to this IDT High Definition Audio. I have tried updating the drivers, however it informs me the most updated drivers are already installed.
I am not entirely sure what is causing this problem, but I do recall installing a Windows or HP update awhile back regarding IDT High Definition Audio. I believe it was an optional update.
EDIT: After doing some further research it looks like it is related to that Windows update and the compatibility of their IDT audio drivers with Windows 8 or 8.1 does not seem very good. If all else fails I will try uninstalling the IDT CODEC all together and use the default HP audio.
Has anyone found a solution that works for them regarding this issue?

Error 52 for the IDT High Definition Audio Codec

The audio on my HP Pavilion g7-1219wm Notebook PC had stopped working. I had tried several things to fix it, even the restoration, which had worked last night but then had the same problem this morning. Please help.

Hi,
Try the following.
Download the IDT Audio installer on the link below and save it to your Downloads folder.
http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp52501-53000/sp52666.exe
When done, open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager and open up Sound, Video and Game Controllers. Right click the IDT device and select Uninstall - you should also get a prompt to remove the current driver, tick the box to allow this and then proceed with the uninstall.
When complete, restart the notebook and let Windows fully load. Open your Downloads folder, right click on the IDT installer and select 'Run as Administrator' to start the installation. When this has completed, right click the speaker icon in the Taskbar and select Playback Devices. Left click 'Speakers and Headphones' once to highlight it and then click the Set Default button - check if you now have audio.
If you still have no audio, open windows Control Panel, open Administrative Tools and open Services. Check that the following services are all showing as Status= Started and Start-up Type= Automatic
Audio Service
Multimedia Class Scheduler
Windows Audio
Windows Audio Endpoint Builder
If you need to make a change to any of the above, just right click the service and select Properties, then in the dropdown box next to 'Start-up type', select Automatic and click Apply to save the change. Then click the Start button.

How to re-enable Beats speakers and sub woofer after configured Windows 8/Ubuntu dual boot?

HP ENvy DV7-7240us
Windows 8 / Linux Ubuntu Dual Boot
No Sound through two front Beats speakers or sub woofer both operating systems after installed Ubuntu 12.10 as dual boot.
Is there a way to at least re-enable the Beats speakers and sub woofer in Windows 8 when I boot on that OS? I am using the UEFI as the boot manager by hitting ESC / F9, and not GRUB2 (Linux).
I did update to "BIOS" (UEFI) F.22 concurrently with the dual boot...possibly this has something to do with it?
I would like to keep the dual boot, but the loss of the Beats speakers is kind of a deal breaker, and virtualization of Linux seems to be buggy in its own right.
I tried re-enabling the sound through right clicking on the speaker icon in the tray, and configuring Playback devices. The only option available is IDT High Definition Audio Codec. Is there another device listing for the Beats speakers that I am missing?
Only other minor issue with the hardware I am aware of is only on the Linux side, that being no pinch to zoom on track pad, which I try not to use anyway.
Thank you.

Have you tried resetting BIOS settings to default? Enter BIOS by tapping/holding F10 key immediately after powering on.Reset to Default settings, usually tap F9,check bottom of screen for correct key.Save & Exit.

It may be due to Continuity

Speakers and Headphone Jack stopped working

I own an HP Envy 17 3D (1195ea). Its running Win7 64 Pro.
Yesterday the laptop was working perfectly fine. I didnt move it and it stayed on the same desk. When I shut it down last night (12th Sept) it was working with both the speakers and headphones. This morning I turned it on and it applied some windows updates. I then tried to play some MP3s and there was no sound coming out of either the speakers or headphones.
I have done a system restore to the 31st Aug to see if that solves the issue without any luck. I have also downloaded the latest drivers for the Audio and both uninstalled the old ones and then installed the latest with no fix.
As far as windows is concerned the sound card is working as advertised. The audio is playing according to VLC, Winamp and WMP and there are no problems with the hardware in the Device Manager. I have also used the windows troubleshooter in control panel and that comes back with no problems.
If I run the beats software and plug in my headphones it detects the headphones so the socket is working correctly. Just with no sound. Equally when I unplug them it switches back to speaker mode.
Audio is still working over HDMI on my TV as well.
I am by no means a noob with computers and have built a number from scratch but I am literally stumped by this.
Any ideas?

iMac PowerPCs being over 8 years old are due for a new PRAM battery every 4 or so years. This may affect your output settings. If your PRAM battery is less than 4 years old, then you may need to modify the Audio Midi Setup application, or rest the PRAM. PowerPC Macs stopped being sold new in 2006.
If your Mac is newer, you posted in the wrong forum. If it is the same year, go to Apple menu -> About This to find if it is PPC (PowerPC, PowerMac), or Intel.

When I plug my headphones in the my laptop I still have sound from my speakers and headphones

Hello, I'm having trouble with the sound on
my laptop and it's only just started to happen.
When I plug my headphones in the my laptop my speakers don't get muted, So I
have sound from my speakers and headphones at the same time.
I've reinstalled the drivers and this didn't work, So I'll hoping you can help me.
HP Pavilion g6 Notebook PC, Product number A8M62EA Windows 7 64-bit

Here's the trick (and it's been verified on 3 other Win 7 systems):
1) R click on your speaker icon, select 'Recording Devices' (if you have the sounds dialog up, it's the 2nd tab 'Recording')
2) R click in the white space, be sure that BOTH "show disabled devices" AND "show disconnected devices" are checked.
3) **Now this step is going to take a little bit of thought for each computer being used: on my laptop (HP Elitebook) I get a device "Stereo Mix", ENABLE this device.
4) Click on Properties, go to the tab 'Listen'
5) Check the box "Listen to this device", also change the drop-down box below "Playback through this device" to be your second audio device
-- To verify that you've done this correctly, go back to the Sound dialog tab Playback, you should now see both of your audio devices showing the little green graphs moving.
Here are the specific settings that I have on my laptop, maybe this will help with your settings:
Speakers- GN9350 (Default Communications Device)
Speakers- SoundMAX Integrated Digital HD Audio (Default Device)
Stereo Mix- 'Listen' feature points this device to my GN9350 headset.
Let us know how it goes!
