Tony refers to the odd habit of Windows to add back disabled devices after an update. This often includes an audio device for your monitor, for example LG HD Audio appears for my LG monitor. Useless. Anyway, bring up the Windows Control Panel, then Device Manager, and look at the Sound category. You will see your soundcard listed there. Anything else might be a candidate for being disabled.
