Windows 10: Installed Realek High Definition Audio drivers show as Realtek Audio in device manager

I have Windows 10 Pro and have downloaded and installed Realtek High Definition Audio drivers from my motherboard manufacturers website but Device manager shows Realtek Audio instead of High Definition Audio. Looking at the Properties Description shows Realtek High Definition Audio. Updating drivers says I'm using the latest drivers and shows them as Realtek High Definition Audio. I've tried selecting the drivers manually and selected the latest and still no change. I've uninstalled and reinstalled with the same result. Installed Apps shows Realtek Audio Driver instead of Realtek High Definiti

Device manager only showing High definition audio

When I go to device manager, unde the audio tab, I only have AMD high definition audio and High definition audio. I installed realtek drivers but they are not showing up there. Basically realtek drivers make no difference whether they are installed or
not. Does realtek work on any computer?

 

Realtek High-Definition Audio Device vs Realtek Audio

When I go to Device Manager > Sound Video and Game controllers my Dell XPS 8940 has the Realtek Audio driver (version 6.0.9228.1, 8/24/2021) installed. If I click Update driver > Browse my computer for Drivers > Let me pick from a list . . ., two "models" are listed under compatible hardware: High Definition Audio Device (HDAD) and Realtek Audio. When I try to use the HDAD, Windows (11) warns me that "Installing this driver is not recommended because Windows cannot verify that it is compatible with your hardware. Et cetera.

Do I NOT have an HDAD in my computer?

 

Realtek High Definition Audio and High Definition Audio Device missing

Hello,
Basic info:
I'm using a Dell G5 15 gaming notebook with Windows 10 for about half a year. Pretty early on I got sound problems such as occasional static sound, static sound when playing yt video and a game at the same time and such. I found a fix to this by going to the Device Manager and changing High Definition Audio Device to Realtek High Definition Audio which would fix it for some time and then I'd have to do it again.
Problem:
But now I don't have Realtek High Definition Audio nor High Definition Audio Device in the device manager, I only have Realtek Audio. ( and Intel display audio, NVIDIA high definition audio, NVIDIA virtual audio device, but I don't think these are relevant) So the sound is low quality, muffled and there's the occasional static sound. I tried installing Realtek High Definition Audio driver from the original Dell G5 15 site, so it should be compatible, the installation goes well, but there is no change in the actual audio. Looking for help on how to fix this. Thanks
