dual monitors stops sound

Hi David,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

To assist you better, I suggest you to answer the below questions.

• When will the sound disable, when playing through main monitor or the extended monitor?
• Did you try enabling the sound from the sound drivers and check if it helps?
• Since from when are you facing this issue?

This issue causes because the monitor automatically takes the HDMI sound as the Default input. Disable and enable the speakers and check if it helps.

I suggest you to try the below steps and check if it helps.

• Right click on the volume control and then
  Properties,
• When you connect the HDMI it becomes the default output device, even though it has no speakers.
• You need to change this back to "Speakers" and set as default.

Hope this helps. Keep us posted to help you better.

 

Up graded to Windows 10 No sound from my Samsung tv monitor

Hi Robbin,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

The HDMI interface in most cases is its own sound device independent of the main computer sound chip.

1) Go to Control Panel.

2) Sound and check the playback device.

3) See if there is a separate option for the HDMI interface, with the monitor connected make that the default device and it should switch to it when the screen is connected.

I also suggest you to check the plugin's connected to TV monitor.

I would suggest you to follow these steps and run the Hardware and devices troubleshooter:

• Type “Troubleshoot” without quotes in search and click on
  Troubleshooting in the results displayed on the left side of the screen.
• In the left pane, click on View all.
• Click Audio playback and follow the on-screen instructions.

Hope it helps.

Let us know the status of the issue.

 

New monitor suggestions, £200 budget

So I am getting (hopefully) £200 of amazon vouchers from work for Christmaqs and have decided I want to get a new monitor, my current is a 23" Samsung Syncmaster, I believe it's a TN panel and the res is 2048x1152. It really is starting to get on my nerves as the coloring is not very natural so I am thinking an IPS panel would probably be a lot better quality wise so I am open to some suggestions as I really don't have a clue when it comes to monitors.

Things to note:

• I do not want to go smaller than 24"

• Would prefer 27" if possible for the budget

• If not then perhaps 24" 120hz

• I currently run 2048x 1152 though 1920 x 1080 is fine

• Must come in at or around £200-£250 absolute max
