Windows 10: speakers not functional at youtube

my speakers are functional at test but do not function when on internet would like to listen on internet

My speakers are not working/My speakers are muted because of a Function Key.

Hi Angela,

Windows 10 may have encountered a driver conflict that caused this issue since you've already tried the function keys + F9 to F11. For us to help you with this, kindly answer the following questions:

• Have you made any recent changes to your computer prior to this issue?
• What is the current build and version of your Windows 10? To check type in
  winver on the search bar and press Enter.
• What is the model number of your Toshiba laptop?
• Are you using a built in speaker or an external speaker?

Meanwhile, we suggest that you update your audio driver by following the steps on this

link. We also recommend that you uninstall and reinstall your audio driver if it is already up to date.

Post back for further assistance.

 

YouTube will not consistently use my Bluetooth speakers?

Well, I've yet to figure out why this happens to YouTube/Chrome, but I've resolved the issue. If you want to specific an output device for Chrome, follow these steps in Windows 10.

1. Right-click on the volume icon in your task bar, and select Open
   Sound Settings.
   
2. Scroll to the bottom of the screen and click on the Advanced sound options -> App
   volume and device preferences option.
   
3. On this screen you will see a list of "Apps". If Chrome (or any application) is behaving badly, then the chances are that a specific device is selected for output.
   

Since I want my system to behave consistently, I toggled from "Speakers/Headphones" to "Default". Using the default option should always output to wherever all system sounds are being played. If output is acting odd, then you can change the current settings (which are used for the app defaults) from the Master volume, Output and Input selection options at the top of the App volume and device preferences screen.

 

Windows 10 recognizes my UE Megaboom as a headset and not a speaker will not work?

Hi Rachael,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



I suggest you try the steps listed below and check if it works. This issue could be because of the Headphones BT SPEAKER Stereo being set as default. I suggest you to try the steps listed below and check if it works.

• Pair the speaker with your PC.
  
• Right click the Windows icon on the taskbar and choose
  Device Manager.
  
• Expand Sound, video, and game controllers
  and right click on your Bluetooth speaker (BT SPEAKER Stereo).
  
• Choose Disable and acknowledge the confirmation popup. Wait for the screen to refresh.
  
• Right click on the same device again and Enable.
  
• Exit Device Manager and see if the issue persist.
  

Regards,
