Maybe try to run the Sound troubleshooter. Open your Control Panel. In the section Hardware and Sound: click the Troubleshoot audio playback. Did you check the jack itself? Is the speaker completely plugged in?

I have installed the driver from the official website, Windows has installed the drive and it always appears as:

Speakers / Headphones (Realtek High Definition Audio)

I have attached a video clip, the only strange thing is that Windows 10 system sounds don't work. Everything else is fine.

Wow that's a really old driver. Maybe try updating to a newer one.
Although it's doesn't seem like a driver issue to me.

Thanks, Uninstalled, Re-Installed and i got the same results. Perhaps it's a minor detail, but it is somewhat frustrating not to be able to solve it.

You can try Iobit's Drive Booster, if there is a driver issue it will find the update.... BUT watch out because it will sneak and install itself to run at startup! I have a love/hate relationship with the program because of that! It works very well and all drivers are Microsoft WHQL tested and you CAN roll back the changes, it does save them. But I would like I said watch your startups and/or uninstall when done!

Download Driver Booster - the best free driver updater for Windows 10, 8, 7, Vista & XP.

Easily fix & update AMD, Realtek, Nvidia, Lenovo, HP, Intel, Dell drivers and game components for your games and devices such as graphics cards and printers. It also helps fix all kinds of PC errors caused by the outdated driver.
