Realtek Audio

I have a 2 year old Inspirion i5-1135G7 and have had nothing but trouble with the Realtek Audio. I've deleted & reloaded the software about a dozen times, it'll work for  3- 4 days and then start dropping the Bluetooth connection. Dell refuses to talk to me unless I spent $90 on a warranty plant which I refuse to do, warranty is for something that breaks, this software was broken when installed at the factory. the fact they still don't have a patch that works is enough to get me to never purchase a Dell product again. this is my 3rd Inspirion, the first two were absolutely great, long lasting, problem free, durable machines. this one is just a piece of garbage.. music is a constant when I'm on the computer, meaning my $700 laptop is a boat anchor. spend your money elsewhere, Dell has lost it's direction, if they'd published a fix I wouldn't be so harsh, but not having a readily available fix just proves they do not care about you once they have your money, unless that is you want to give them more money. I think I'll put that $90 towards a new Samsung....
