Windows 10: My Laptop shows the audio is being played BUT the audio itself isnt getting played. Realtek...

So I woke up this morning and I open My Laptop to do normal stuff. I try to watch some videos and there is NO audio. I run troubleshooter and it says No Problems were found. When I go to sound option in setting and try to figure out the problem, The audio is ACTUALLY showing that the audio is being played, like when I play a video, the waveform is actually going up and down, but no audio.


THE AUDIO WONT PLAY THROUGH MY HEADPHONES ALSO !!


I tried Using system Restore point: That didnt work, just kept on circling, so I gave up on that


I tried reinstalling the drivers, That didnt work either

I tried using System check repair tool. No luck

I tried restarting the Services of Audio Endpoint and Windows audio. Nope

I looked hours and hours on the internet on a fix for this.

What did work for a couple of hours was that when I tried to update the driver by right clicking on Realtek Audio > update driver > Browse manually> let me pick the drivers whatever > High Definition Audio > Box shows up this : This can make your computer unstable....> Clicked yes> Restarted on prompt

The audio through Speakers did not work, but it DID work through the Headphones. I tried to game on it BUT the audio was messed up in these ways:

1The audio wasnt bass boosted like it usually was,

2 The gunshots were WAY louder than before with respect to the surroundings walking footsteps picking things up sound etc

What really pisses me off is that I KNOW the speakers do work, and how do I know that ?

You see, My laptop's a gaming laptop so on STARTUP it plays a *shwing* sound before booting up.


Even after these speakers not working for videos, on startup it ALWAYS plays it.


Please help me Season 5 of Apex is gonna start tommorow and I dont play without audio please help me I cant even go out to send for repairs because of lockdown. PLEASE HELP AAAAAAAAAA

:)

 

Speakers not detected as plugged in and quit playing audio, but initially play sound

Relevant Specs are:

Windows 10 x64

Audio run through Realtek audio HD manager

MSI z170m Mortar Motherboard

Logitech Multimedia Speakers Z200/ rear panel audio

Logitech G933 headset/ usb bluetooth

I'm encountering a problem with a pair of Logitech speakers that I recently purchased. The speakers will not play audio, even though they are on and operational. I know they are operational because when I restart my computer they initially play sound, but
will cut off soon after. If I don't immediately play audio, the speakers will not play sound later. My Logitech headset is fully connected and plays audio perfectly with no problems. At times the Logitech speakers will continue to play audio for no apparent
reason. In playback devices the Logitech speakers are not listed as plugged in. It shows nothing is connected to the rear audio panel.

I believe the problem originates with the Realtek HD audio. If I start the Realtek HD audio manager I get a pop-up saying that a device has been unplugged. I have googled this problem and see many similar issues but none of the common solutions have fixed this.

-Realtek audio drivers are fully updated, Logitech drivers are fully updated, Windows 10 is fully updated.

-In the Realtek audio manager, I have disabled front panel detection, but the front panel still shows something plugged in(nothing is)

-In the Realtek audio manager I have tried changing the various settings such as separating all inputs as independent audio sources, nothing changes.

-My MOBO has an s/pdif optical port on the rear panel audio, nothing is plugged into it but in Sound playback devices it still lists the port and Realtek Digital Output as ready

-I have enabled or disabled all audio devices, nothing changes

-Unplugging and disabling my Logitech headset does not suddenly connect the Logitech speakers

Looking for anyone else who has this problem but is unable to fix it.

As an initial troubleshooting step, I suggest you to check if the volume is set low or in mute state in Volume Mixer.
