Jul 19, 2017 This issue occurs because the USB audio 2.0 driver (usbaudio2.sys) isn't classified as a generic driver in Windows 10 Version 1703. Therefore, the system assumes that a compatible, nongeneric driver is installed for the device even though the driver is actually generic.

Sorry, Darwin, still no luck.
Audio Driver Windows 10 Download
With the SoundMAX driver installed, I uninstalled the driver, deleted driver software, and scanned for hardware changes. This resulted in the generic driver appearing in Device Manager. However, after reboot, Playback Devices still reports 'No audio devices are installed.'
Next, I uninstalled the generic driver and again scanned for hardware changes. Note that no option to delete driver software appears in this case. Once again, after reboot, 'No audio devices are installed.'
I repeated the latter sequence several more times. No change.
FYI, I checked my Lenovo laptop, which is about the same age as the desktop and has the same history of XP to Win 7 to Win 10 and recently to Version 1709. I note that it is running the generic audio driver with no difficulty. Although it is a mystery to me how that happened, since I never had any reason to change drivers.
I am still puzzled as to why the desktop will not accept the generic driver. Is this a registry problem?
