uninstall current driver and download and install Realtek HD driver from realtek official site, not from your mother board manufacturer. it should be something like Vista_Win7_R251 and size around 72.2 MB. Hope this will help.

thanks.
That worked for me after I closed the volume settings. It seems the apply button in the volume control settings does not actually apply, but still… all good now.

Also noticed you can up the mic volume through the sound settings and add boost if needed.
