I had a PC with an old motherboard and CPU (ASUS A7V8X + Intel Core2Duo). Some days ago I decided to upgrade Motherboard, CPU and RAM.
I bought an ASUS H61M-K and an Intel core i3-3220, with a 1600MHz 4GB RAM module from Corsair. My old graphics card (ATI 3870) and hard disks were compatible with the new motherboard, so I did not upgrade them.
I built my new PC, installed Windows 7 and installed everything that was on the motherboard install CD (including the Realted HD Audio driver). Everything works fine, except for the audio.
If I open the Realtek control panel and plug/unplug speakers, I can see that them are being recognized (windows also says "A new jack has been plugged in"), but I hear no sound if I try to play some music.
Why? Is there any particular setup that I should do on my motherboard to make sound work?

If you use Realtek HD Audio with front & back panel jack, and you got a "plugged / unplugged device message" , here`s the simple solution for this problem.
