Has anybody also encountered such a problem with a Sound Blaster card ?
Sound is OK with integrated audio controller.
The problem just occurred after version 1803 update.

Thank you for any help.

Have you gone into your BIOS and disabled the integrated audio controller? If you have an add on sound card like your Sound Blaster card you need to disable the onboard sound in the BIOS. If you have already done so then you might need to install the drivers for your Sound Blaster card. Windows is notorious for deleting sound and network drivers during an OS update.

Sometimes after a major update there will an additional update for devices. I have had this happen for Conextant audio more than once.

Have you checked if the SB device is there but disabled?

Ram1220 is probably correct
