Hello, I have some problems with Realtek HD Audio driver.

First,  every time after boot sound seems to be really flat - with no bass, it's a  pain to hear something on headphones. After few minutes sound suddenly turns into normal and its ok till next reboot. 

Second - sometimes (not always) microphone captures sound really bad (with cracks) or even worse - it completly modulates my voice (only reboot fixes it, but not always).

What it can be? I've tried everything and I have no idea what I can do with this situation. Those issues happens on every version of Realtek HD dedicated to my laptop. I've tried also completly disabling this faulty driver, but on default Windows driver I have some anoying sound cracks (especialy on headphones). 

Thanks in advice for any help.
