Windows 10: Windows 11: sound only in test and only with audio enhancements

Hi all,I have followed all the typical solutions to solve the audio issue on Windows. I have drivers up to date check with the original ones too, the speakers are default, services are running properly, driver works etc.The problem looks as follows: the only way I can force my laptop to play any sound is to either change volume while moving the slider or click "test" either in "normal" settings or in advanced. The more fascinating thing is that when I disable audio enhancements, I cannot hear anything at all. There is no sound then.Any other source web, spotify, tidal etc. nothing play

Audio Enhancements

Hi Charlotte,

One step that we could try is to manually re-install the Audio Enhancement, and see if it helps. First, go to HP's website and download the latest Audio Enhancement installer (IDT) and save it to your Downloads folder. Once done, follow the remaining steps
below:

• Search for Control Panel via Cortana search and hit the
  Enter key.
• Open the Device Manager and click Sound, Video and Game controllers.
• Right click the IDT device and select Uninstall.
• Restart your PC.
• Once your PC restarts, it should automatically load all audio driver. Let it complete the process.
• Go to the Downloads folder, right click on the IDT installer and select
  Run as administrator.

Once complete, check if you have the enhancements back and let us know the outcome.
