Windows 10: Output device changes on boot

I have my output device on my HP laptop set to a Bluetooth wireless device. Every time I boot from shutdown or after every restart, the output changes to the computer's audio device*Mad. How can I stop this? Is there a default setting somewhere?

:)

 

No Audio Output Device is Installed

Hi,

You will need to select Windows 8 from the drop down list while installing the driver in compatibility mode.

I would suggest you to try setting the speaker as default audio output by following the steps below and check if it helps.

1. Right click on the sound icon on the right bottom corner of the taskbar.

2. Select "playback devices".

3. If "speaker" is not set as the default device, highlight it and click "set as default".

5. Save the changes.

Let us know the result.
