Hi:
I have zipped up and attached below, a free utility that will give you that info.
Run the utility. Close out of the summary report.
On the left side of the program window, click to expand the Audio section.
Click on the onboard audio device.
There are probably two listed...one for the HDMI port and one for the onboard audio.
I know that my PC's onboard audio device is the Intel Cougar Point chipset audio, for example.
Once you have identified the onboard audio device, on the right side of the program window will be the details.
My PC has the Realtek ALC662 audio codec.
My PC was manufactured in 2011.

That's interesting.
When I run the report on my PC, it gives the ALC version.
But it also shows the hardware ID for the chip, so google the hardware ID that is listed below the Realtek heading, and perhaps you will find what codec that device is in cyberspace.

I googled it and looked at the results for around 5-10 minutes but I found nothing
I cannot help but thinking that HP or Realtek Has forgotten to put this specification into there driver
