Windows 10: Windows 11 default sound isn't playing when I change the volume

All the sounds on my laptop play fine, except the default sound that's supposed to play when I change the volume here:It worked alright, however, when I had that sound set to either the default Windows Notify System Generic or the dark mode version of that sound. After changing my sound scheme, all other sounds still work fine except this one. This problem has plagued me on all Windows 10 and 11 devices I've used, so it definitely isn't a hardware issue.Any tips?

:)

 

No sound while playing audio and video files.

Hi,

I appreciate if you could answer to a few questions to narrow down to the issue.

• Which is the application that you are using to play the files?
• Did you try the same on a different player?
• Did you perform any troubleshooting steps?

As an initial troubleshooting step, I suggest you to check if the volume is set low or in mute state in Volume Mixer.

• Right click on sound icon.
• Open Volume Mixer check for the application that you are playing the files with and increase the volume and check.

If the issue still persists, I would suggest you to run “Playing audio” troubleshooter to diagnose and fix the issue.

Follow these Steps to run Playing Audio Troubleshooter in Windows 10.

1. Type troubleshooting in the search bar.

2. Select Troubleshooting.

3. Select View all on the top left corner.

4. Click on Playing audio.

"Ding" sound (e.g. from adjusting volume) no longer plays

When adjusting volume on Windows, the system will play a "ding" sound to help you gauge the current volume. That sound no longer plays on my machine.

What I've done:

• Tried various output devices (speakers, headerphones, monitor speakers, etc.)
• Updated mobo and sound card drivers
• Played the .wav files (C:\Windows\media) in a media player to ensure the files are not corrupted

Methods that SHOULD play the sound but don't:

• Adjust volume
• {Windows_key} (search) --> type "sound" --> {Enter} --> "Sounds" tab --> Scroll to "Default Beep" --> click "Test"
• Running some batch file that echoes 0x007
• `echo ^G`

Thanks for your time.

 

App Volume Default wont change

Greetings:

I am having an audio issue. I have Windows 10, sound card AMD GX 570.

Problem: If I don't have my speakers turned on when I start the computer my apps (ex. steam, browsers (all), music) won't play. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the driver as per my graphic/sound card tech help people. When I click the speaker icon and
slide the sound volume, I get the bong sound. But still no sound from any apps. When I run the troubleshooter, no issues found. I only have my speakers set as default. No other devices are listed or hidden. I am not sure how this was done previously, but the
sound was being routed to my monitor, but this was disabled and no longer being listed as an option. On the speaker icon, only Speakers (2-Realtek High Def.) is listed. There is no other option.

What I did notice is that in the sound - App volume and device preferences on the option for the sound system, it says Default. The master is set to the Speakers with no option of default.

Under the app:

System sound is set to 95 -- Output is Default ( no other options are given)

Then I have Chrome and Edge listed under that and I am given options of Default and Speakers.

When I choose Speakers for the chrome and edge, still no sound, but the volume bar in a different area is saying that sound is coming through.

How can I change the app system sound to speakers?

Under Mange sound devices, the only device that is listed is the Speakers. I hit test and I get the bong sound. It is enable.

So what is the default??? The only place I can find the default is in the Sound under playback, and it only lists the Speakers.

Help.. Thanks
