Hello,
I bought this all-in-one PC on 07/13/2017, display model.
Everything was working well until today.

No sound on video even though the slider is at maximum.
I haven't touched anything.

Can someone help me?
Thank you in advance.

    hi

    no sound on the video even though the volume is at maximum.

    is the volume icon not on "mute"?

    have you tested with a music CD?

    are the speakers set as the default playback device?

    in the device manager, do you not have any ? or /!\ in yellow?

      Thank you billmaxime

      The volume icon is not on mute.
      No sound during CD playback
      No ? or anything in the device manager.

      I hope the PC isn't broken.....

      Thanks anyway.

    re

    ok, and for this:

    are the speakers the default playback device?

    right-click on the sound icon in the taskbar

    select "playback devices"

    check if the speakers are set as default



    you can also test with a headset (if you have one)

      Good evening billmaxime

      Sorry for my delay, I just got home.
      Thank you for your response.
      I right-clicked on the "sound" icon and to my surprise, there were no speakers.
      So I clicked on troubleshoot and followed the instructions.

      After restarting, the sound came back....
      In playback, I only have the speaker icon and not the two others that appear in your model!
      It might be normal.

      Anyway, thank you for your effective advice.
      I can finally listen to videos, etc...

      Have a good evening and good luck.

      Best regards, Annaelleo

    great

    Maybe that's normal.


    Right-click on the speaker icon, and check the 2 boxes as shown in the image



    PS: the 1st on my image is for HDMI when I connect my PC to the TV

    the 3rd is the Realtek sound manager

    See you later

    Hello billmaxime

    I right-clicked on the "speakers" icon and both displays are already checked but no icon appears.
    On the other hand, for recording, I activated "stereo mix."

    Thank you

    I find that the sound is low even though the volume is at 100%.
    Is there a possibility to increase it?

    Thank you, billmaxime

    Did the volume sound louder before?

    Check if you have a restore point that dates back to before your sound problem.

    re

    I went to the audio manager and I pushed the slider to the maximum, then I checked the speakers
    full game left and right.
    now the sound is much louder.

    I can’t see where the restore point is.
    anyway, thank you for your help.

    best regards

    So you no longer have any issues with the sound?
