Probably would help if i posted what my specs are and i would suggest to everyone with similar problem to do so as well. I am using on board sound on a ASUS P8P67 motherboard and i believe it uses RealtekĀ® ALC 892 8-Channel High Definition Audio CODEC . I am also running Windows 8.1 fully updated on a R9 290 Tri-X AMD GPU with the latest AMD drivers. If there is any other info that is need pleases let us know.
