Bringing this to the notice of whoever is reading this, the solution only works with Alienware 15 R3. So if you own the same model and you're facing the same issue and you're confused, follow the steps:-

1. Download and SAVE the Realtek ALC3266 Audio Driver setup from this link
2. Click the setup and Install the driver. (Note: If you have a newer driver version already installed, the installation wizard will prompt you saying that you're installing an older version. Just go ahead with the installation because only this version is compatible with Alienware Sound Center currently on Alienware 15 R3. Any newer version will give you problems. You'll be asked to restart your laptop twice, first for uninstalling the newer version and the second time for installing this version)
3. Once you're done with the installation, now you need to again click the driver setup and select Extract to extract the files into a folder.
4. Open that folder and look for RealtekHDAudio\Nahimic\AWSoundCenter.exe. Through this file, install the Sound Center application and restart your PC.

You'll now be able to use the Alienware Sound Center application.
