    device audio services are not responding


    I moved my pc to a different room last night and since then my headset wont pick up any audio. i know my headset works because it works on my brothers pc. I did an audio troubleshoot and it said device audio services are not responding. I let it restart my audio devices and restarted my pc and its still not working. im on windows 11. I found another thread on here about the same issue that said uninstall the device so i did that but that didnt work either

    :)

  2. Audio Service Not Responding

    You can try a few things if you're having trouble with the audio service not responding on Windows.

    • First, restart your computer and see if that fixes the problem.
    • If not, try running the Windows audio troubleshooter.
    • You may need to update your audio drivers if that doesn't work.
    • You can do this through the Device Manager.

  3. Audio Services are not running / responding.

    Charlie,

    The Audio services not responding problem is very likely due to an outdated, corrupted or incompatible audio driver on your Windows. I'd like to ask, what do you mean by "to
    boot in safe mode and or clean boot / wipe the system and that wouldn't be possible in my current situation"? Are you connected via domain server? Are you getting any error messages when you try to boot into safe mode and perform a clean boot?

    In the meantime, I suggest that you follow these steps:

    Step # 1: Restart your audio services.

    1. Press Windows key + R and then type services.msc and click OK.
    2. Find and right-click on "Windows Audio", then click Restart.
    3. Right-click on Windows Audio one more time, this time click Properties.
    4. Set the Startup type to Automatic. Click Apply > OK.
    5. Do the same thing to "Windows Audio Endpoint Builder".
    Note: If the Restart option grayed out, your Windows Audio Endpoint Builder service is not running, click Start instead.

    Step # 2: Uninstall the audio driver in the Device Manager. Open Device Manager> Sound, video and game controllers> Right click the driver> Properties> Driver tab> Uninstall Device> Restart
    your PC, and Windows will attempt to reinstall the driver.

    Note: If the same issue persists after reinstalling the driver, please contact the audio card manufacturer's website and find and download the correct drivers for your device. Then install it on your computer manually.
