There's a chance that you might be able to uninstall the HP driver/applet set that HP provides for that model, and install a standard Realtek driver set instead. This would take a bit of research around the web, after first identifying the exact model Realtek sound the machine has in it. May not need to do an uninstall if you find a .exe Realtek driver installer, possibly a generic Windoze Vista driver, just run it.

It is only software, so if that idea were to fail for any reason, you should be able to go ahead and download the original HP drivers for your machine from their support website and return what you have now. Only loss for this is your time.
