Yeah, this has been a disappointment.  However, COVID is still real and a problem, so I'm trying to cut them some slack.  There is a beta 0.2.11 driver link floating around these forums.  You can try finding & downloading that.

Thank you for this thread. I was considering getting this card for my new build but I think I will go with an external solution instead.

As a big fan and supporter of EVGA, I am hopeful they can breathe more life into this product line. I love my sound card but agree that I am a bit disappointed not only in the ongoing support, but also the lack of communication. I know the community guys are great and actively following these threads. It would make a big difference if we could learn more about the roadmap or even short term support issues due to pandemic. We are all human so we would understand.. but we have to know first before we can understand. :) 

I have requested features that are available on lower end and older cards since the card was released. Seems its all too much work to do any of it or make a stable driver. Trying to get solutions for things always seems to be made out to be the users fault. Hardware is good, just the software is limited and buggy.

Yeah I'm having sound issues in my GeForce Shadowplay recordings. Nvidia has tried to help on the issue and my solution was to uninstall Nahimic. I made a post here regarding this and none of the EVGA techs have cared to comment on it. I don't have this audio issue with my other PC with a Sound Blaster AE-9.

To add into the woes mentioned above, I'll occasionally get an issue that drops FPS in games / high-use browser add-ons (YouTube, streaming live TV, etc) to the point that I have to entirely reboot the system to get it to work normally.
 
Or, at times on a fresh boot-up, it just won't manifest any sound (Spotify comes back and says 'I can't play this track' for anything I attempt to do) - and again, it requires a reboot.

Yeah I have the same issue, it extends also to videos on Twitter, LoL both the client and the game, and Valorant both voice and game. It's random which one it will be, sometimes multiple at once. This is a severe issue, EVGA needs to say something, even if it's just a notice that they're aware of the issue.

Hi everyone, I can assure you that support most definitely has not been abandoned for the NU Audio or NU Audio Pro cards.  I've asked our Audio team to update me when we should expect to see the next drivers for these cards, as well as updates on some of the issues that have been reported.  This may take a few days.
 
I've mentioned this before, but we do have some limitations on our software team, and there are a number of software projects in the works.  Some that you can probably guess, and some....well, we'll just leave it at that.  With that said, we'll continue to look through the forums for issues that people are reporting and see whether we can resolve them.

Certainly feels like it. There have been feature requests since product launch that seem to have gone nowhere. Sidetone, Stereo Mix, and Reducing Mic Input Gain.

Sidetone, pass the microphone input back to the listener with minimal delay. Creative has had this functionality for as long as I can remember.
Stereo Mix, an input channel of the output from the output device mixed down to stereo, 2 channels.
Reducing Mic Input Gain, the current being sent to microphones is too high. This causes signal clipping. Adjusting the volume slider does not solve the problem as that is just the output volume of the resulting signal captured.
 
There are likely more that I'm missing but I have had this card since it was released and have been apart of the group asking for these things since purchasing this card. These are are the items I really feel are holding back this card.
 
I'm looking at getting the Schiit Hel pending a few questions I've put out to people who have it, while it's not perfect it does what I consider the minimum for audio products targeted towards gamers, high quality both inputs and outputs with features that make sense.

Like many of you, I own a NU Audio Pro card, and there are many QoL items that I'd like to see implemented, as well. Now that I also have a pair of speakers, my request for hotkey or otherwise toggle switching between speakers and headphones without having to use the software is without a doubt still a high-priority for me.  With regards to these:
 
- Sidetone, also known as low latency monitoring, is not something they can implement at this time.  My understanding is that it is something that can be added, but it will take them too much time at present.
- Stereo mix is not something that can be easily implemented.  There are a number of reasons for this, but even working with one of our software partners for the NU Audio cards to implement this in the quickest and easiest fashion would not necessarily work properly.  However, I did ask our Audio team to look into something similar, which would be easier to integrate and provide the same essential function.  I'm still waiting to hear back on this.
- The mic input clipping is something that appears to only affect a small number of people.  It's not something that our team has been able to recreate in-house, so I might need you to PM me more detailed information about what you're using and when/how it occurs.

Hi Lee, thanks for reaching out again. I know you're in a tough spot and we're not making it easy for you and the team.

I've tested the mic on the ATH-AG1, 2X ATH-AG1X, and now a ModMic Uni to try and see if those improve or point to an issue with with the actual devices I'm plugging in. I seriously feel like the card is providing the port with too much, current, amp, volts, what have you. I have a multimeter and I am willing to create some Frankenstein cables to test things if needed.

I'd be happy to reopen the PM we had regarding this matter already if that would be preferable for you.

Feedback I received yesterday is to look for a new driver between mid-to-late August.  It will fix one issue that people were running into regarding user account issues, but they'll also try to add any of the more recent issues people have been reporting.
 

Sorry if this has been asked before but does anyone know if we will ever get EQ presets like others offer for FPS games, Movies, Music, etc..

I'm am still looking for native bass management.  Right now, the only solution for us is to, during installation, disable Nahimic features and use Window's enhancements.  Pretty bad to lose features.
Also, the Windows bass management feature is pretty crappy.  If you have 'full range speakers' option enabled it basically kills the bass forwarding and disabling them severely reduces gain.  It's just all around a bad sound experience.

August is about done, and I have not yet seen nor heard of any driver update (and I've checked regularly).  Continued communication & updates would be welcome.  Thanks.
 
EDIT: Driver 2.1.14 is available in the official driver section, dated 8/31.  Cheers.

I bought an EVGA Nu Audio card several months ago. I had an install error saying it was not installed correctly and to restart and re-install. I did so and it kept giving me the same error and same message to reinstall. I did reinstall several times. Uninstalled the drivers and app and restarted and reinstalled drivers same error. Uninstalled everything took out card, rebooted, shut down installed card in different slot and tried installing/reinstalling the drivers several more times with the same error every single time. Every time I boot up my system I get the same error message that the drivers are no installed correctly and to reinstall. 
The card works fine the whole time. I have an optical cable to my Sony AV Receiver STR-DN1080 and a set of KEF Q series 5.1 speakers, it works fine. It absolutely sounds so much better than the realtek onboard audio on my ASUS Prime Z390-A motherboard. But I still get this error message every time I start my system. 
I thought the last driver release would fix the issue but nope same thing, tried it all again reinstalling over and over, taking the card out, switching slots, reinstalling, rebooting nothing changed the error message. 
Again the card "seems" to work fine but I still get this error message.
 
Obviously I should have done a lot more research before I bought this. Funny thing is, I actually took several months trying to decide whether or not try an dedicated sound card or not. I always had one back in the 90's but on board sound took over on premium motherboards and I didn't use one for a long time. I read a lot about this sound card before deciding to buy it over a soundblaster card, because I always used soundblaster in the past but I thought this would be better. I never searched for problems with the card though. The main thing I was trying to decide was whether I needed a dedicated sound card, whether it would provide any tangible benefits over onboard audio. It most definitely sounds better than onboard but there is still issues. Maybe I should have gone with a Soundblaster. 
 
Are people having the same problem with the Nu Audio Pro cards? I wanted that model but I live in canada and the price of that when I bought mine was just outrageous. I paid over $300 for the original Nu Audio card. 
 
I sure wish EVGA would get their act together and put out drivers and apps that work.

I've been a PC Gaming Enthusiast for almost 30 years. I'm fairly competent building and maintaining my computers, this sound card shouldn't be any issue for me. However it has been an issue since day one, it's been a little more than 6 months since I bought. I would have expected the problem to be worked out by now.
 
I am very disappointed it is still a problem. I want to love this sound card because it does sound good but this problem has been going on too long. I read some reviews on amazon about people having the same problem and not even giving the card a chance just returning it or RMA'ing it because of the same error message I get. The sound worked for me so I was willing to over look this error message but it should have been fixed by now. Maybe I should start a support ticket and RMA process.
 
Edit-
One thing I forgot to mention is that I have also reinstalled Windows twice since first installing the sound card. That was the main reason I didn't think much of the error message in the beginning. I was overdue for a fresh install of Windows but after I did that there was no change. 
I'm running fully activated legit windows 10 pro. All drivers and windows are up to date.
Also I tried installing and reinstalling under safe mode with no change. 
 
 

Will there be a software update for Pro cards?
