Speaker/headphone sound on Lat. E6430 w/ W7 needs to be constantly "reconfigured".

I've tried to search for a solution to my problem:

I have a Latitude E6430 running Windows 7 and the Sound dialog from the Control Panel shows:

Clik here to view.

and the Device Manager dialog from the Control Panel shows:

Clik here to view.

Every time I boot my laptop, I have to follow this process:

  • Select "Sound" from the Control Panel.
  • Select "Speakers / Headphones (IDT High Definition Audio CODEC - Default Device)
  • Select the Properties button.
  • Select "Don't use this device (disable)"
  • Select OK or Apply.
  • Select "Device Manager" from the Control Panel.
  • Select "Sound" from the "Device Manger" dialog.
  • Right-click on "IDT High Definition Audio CODEC"
  • Select "Disable".
  • Select "Yes".
  • Wait for the refresh (the "Sound" dialog shows: "No audio devices are installed").
  • Right-click on "IDT High Definition Audio CODEC" (which now shows as disabled).
  • Select "Enable" (at which point the "Sound" dialog shows the Speakers / Headphones... [but disabled]) tab in Playback.
  • Select "Speakers / Headphones (IDT High Definition Audio CODEC - Default Device)
  • Select the Properties button.
  • Select "Use this device (enable)"
  • Select OK or Apply.
  • Audio is magically restored.

After this dance, it will still happen that my audio cuts out and I have to repeat the process. Several times a day.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you,

Chris
