  1. HELP! Sound no longer working normally in Windows 10


    I bought my PC 5 days ago. It was working perfectly normal - sound and everything. 2 days ago however, I started to hear glitches. My sound will disconnect for a split second and connect back, constantly interrupting whatever I'm doing. It turns out that the audio output keeps toggling between the 'Realtek Speakers' and 'Realtek Digital Output'. Upon closer inspection, it seems that Windows is constantly changing the default audio output to either one of them.

    I have tried the following solutions to no avail:
    1) disable all audio outputs except the one I'm using. The audio will toggle between what I'm using and nothingness. It's just constant interruption.
    2) Updating drivers
    3) Re-installing Realtek drivers completely

    I am back to square one. Please help me!!! I can't play games or do anything in peace. Please help me!

    Hdmi sound not working

    Hi Peter,

    One possible reason why the HDMI sound does not work is due to the conflicts with the playback settings. For us to help you make the HDMI sound to work, we suggest that you answer the following questions for further research:

    • Have you made any recent changes to your computer?
    • What is the current build and version of your Windows 10?
    • Have you tried to download and install the most updated sound and display driver of your computer?

    Meanwhile, we suggest that you perform the steps on this
    article
    as our initial troubleshooting and see if there will be any changes on the HDMI sound.

    We'll be waiting for your response.
