After connecting speaker to rear green audio output, "Speakers (Realtek R Audio)" appears in list under DELL U2419H in Device Manager, popup from notifications Realtek Audio console - Which device did you plug in? "Front speaker out" appears first within a drop down list, "ok" selected.
Tested using previous driver dated 10/3/2023
Same results, problem exists
It sounds like a broken broadcast station, many static sounds.
Realtek Audio Console installed.
