  2. How To Change Monitor Audio To Motherboard Audio

    Hi Saurav,

    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

    In order to get clarity on this issue and assist you with appropriate troubleshooting steps, please reply with the answers to the questions below.

    1. Do you want to use your external speakers for the audio instead of the monitor speakers?

    Meanwhile, you may try the below steps to change the playback device and check if this helps.

    1. Select on the Start button > Type Sound in the search box > Select
      Sound from the list of results.
    2. Go to Playback tab > Select your Sound System Device that you want to hear the audio from > Then click on

    3. Restart the computer once and check if this helps.

    We're looking forward to your response.

  3. Windows 10 recognizing audio system as a monitor

    Hi, i have a DENON audio system connected to my laptop via an hdmi cable and it works as it should from an audio standpoint but it also recognizes it as monitor (presumably because you can pass a video through it to another monitor or a tv).

    The problem is, i dont want windows recognizing it as a monitor because i am not using this feature and its just just annoying, as windows thinks its an active monitor and sometimes opens apps on this "monitor".

    I tried disabling it but that ends up disconecting it whole and the audio doesnt work. I also cannot show the same picture on it as my main monitor because the main monitor has a 1440p resolution and the audio system is for some reason fixed at fullhd.

    Can i somehow configure it so windows will know its not a monitor?

    Thank you all for help

  4. Monitor audio not recognized

    Laptop suddenly stopped recognizing the external monitor

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    To assist you better, I would like to ask if the laptop is unable to recognize only the external monitor or other external devices also.

    I suggest you to run the Hardware and Devices troubleshooter by following the steps below:

    • Click on the Start button, and type “Troubleshooting” on the search bar.
    • Click on “Hardware and Devices”.
    • A pop-up will appear, click on the “Next” button and your hardware troubleshooting will start.

    Hope the information is helpful. Keep us posted on the status for further assistance.
