B&O dissappeared

[Palgao]

Hi! I had my B&O app working just fine, until recently that I got a Realtek High-Definition audio driver update (softpack number: sp92810 Version: 6.0.1.8519) on my HP Support Assistant along with a system BIOS update. I finished installing them and it restarts but now my speakers won't work, my B&O icon disapeared and when I check on my computer's audio settings it just recognizes them Realtek speakers, and when I plug in my earphones it works. I would like to re-install my B&O drive or something and get my speakers working again... 

Thank you for your help!
