    windows 10 default sounds no longer working


    The speakers do work in other apps such as video or YouTube or online films or when I double click a wav file in the C:\Windows\media location where the Windows Default looks for sounds, but only do not work with Windows Program Events such as found in the Windows Default scheme found in the "Sounds" tab regarding events such as "Asterisk", "Calendar Reminder", etc., etc.
    I have even reinstalled the audio driver but to no avail.
    This most definitely has something to do with the speakers not engaging for any Windows notifications. Otherwise, the speakers engage with any other app.

    :)

    Windows 10 HDMI audio fails

    I have a Surface Pro 2 with Windows 10 upgrade. HDMI video works, but HDMI no longer functions. This used to work with the same mini port connector, HDMI cable, and HDMI monitor while using Windows 8.1. The device is detected and auto selected as the default
    playback device, but no sound. Test sounds do not work. Video sound doesn't work. There's definitely something wrong with the Win10 drivers.

    Ideas?
