Controlling ASUS AI Noise-Cancelling Mic Adapter directly on Linux

Support Sound
1

I know this adapter has a Windows app that can turn the noise cancelling on and off, also changing the noise cancelling level, on the fly. However, I need to do that on Linux. I haven’t found anyone reverse engineering the app so I’m thinking of installing the app through wine, it only needs mscorefonts which can be installed through winetricks in order for the GUI to appear. But for it to detect the adapter, I’m lost.

I’m curious with

0130:err:ntoskrnl:ZwLoadDriver failed to create driver L"\\Registry\\Machine\\System\\CurrentControlSet\\Services\\RtsUpx": c0000142

Googling around, it seems to be a driver for USB Realtek device, which could be the chipset used by this adapter.
