Windows 10: Windows 11 Cast to TV but no sound

Hi allI've been trying to cast my laptop to my smart tv. The image shows up fine, but there's no sound. When I enter the sound option, the digital output volume is 0 and won't let me increase it. I've used my other laptop 2 to cast to the same TV, and the sound was fine. I also tried casting my laptop 1 to my smart monitor, and the sound works fine.I should add that initially the sound was fine, however it suddenly went out while casting and hasn't worked since. I've reset my TV, tried reinstalling my sound drivers and restarted my laptop, but to no avail. The only thing I haven't done is

:)

 

casting to tv no sound

In windows 11, casting to tv every time when using laptop, then I used wireless headphones. This was paired with windows 11 in Bluetooth and devices. After said use I disconnected the wifi headphones and continued casting to my tv but the sound only came through my laptop not my tv. I did a windows Recovery and that did not work. So now do I have to go to Bluetooth Devices go to Audio locate my TV then select Remove device and I guess there's a way to re-install it? I don't want to do that because that might screw things up more and I might not be able to correct it. Any help? Thanks.

Casting to TV has no sound.

Hello.

I've recently installed Windows 11 and now whenever I cast to my TV (as a wireless monitor), Windows only casts picture, but not sound. The sound still goes through my PC speakers.

I suspect it's a driver problem, because I only have "speaker" in audio devices, no other options. I've tried installing Realtek driver, but it didn't help.
