Hi jazzy null,

If the PC manufacturer does not provide Realtek Audio Console for your specific model, I would not recommend installing it separately. The missing console may simply mean that your device uses a different audio solution.

Since the main concern is the input/output issue, please check:

Go to Settings > System > Sound > More sound settings.
Under Playback and Recording, make sure the required device is Enabled and set as Default.
Open the device's Properties > Advanced tab and temporarily disable Audio enhancements or Exclusive mode, if available.
Test the audio again.

If the audio device is missing entirely or still does not work after the manufacturer-provided driver is installed, please share the PC make/model and the audio devices shown under Device Manager > Sound, video and game controllers. That should help narrow down whether this is a driver, device-detection, or audio-routing issue.
