  1. Microphone and Speaker Not Recognized After Windows Update


    I am using Windows 10 Pro 64-bit. After installing some updates, both my microphone and speaker are no longer recognized. In the Device Manager, I see ‘Intel High-Definition DSP’ listed under the ‘Other Devices’ category. My Windows is up-to-date, and I have checked the Intel Driver Support, but there is nothing for me to do. Can someone please help me resolve this issue?

    :)

  2. Lumia 930 microphone doesn't work on speaker

    Hi, I have same issue on Lumia 930, have tried the various steps proposed by Microsoft, have also tried updating software to Windows 10 but to no avail. While a number of posts on this topic suggest it is likely to be a hardware bug, my symptoms seem to
    indicate software:

    • while using the phone normally (not on speaker) the microphones work perfectly. IE microphones 1 and 2 at the bottom of the phone appear to be working 100%
    • while using the phone on speaker, microphones 1 and 2 (see Problem with Lumia 930 second microphone for good photos of microphone locations) seem to be completely off
    • while using phone on speaker, microphones 3 and 4 at the top of the phone seem to work reasonably as long as I'm close to the phone. Not as well as they should on a speakerphone though.
    • microphone on headset works fine
    This does look to be a very widespread issue ... any updates from Microsoft?

    thanks
