@Clojr,

Welcome to our HP Community forum!

The HP Pavilion 22cwa monitor does not have built-in speakers, which means you won’t be able to adjust the volume directly from the monitor. However, here are some steps to get sound working:

1. Check Your Audio Output Device:

Since this monitor doesn’t have speakers, your PC might be trying to send audio to it incorrectly:

• Windows 10/11:
  • Right-click the speaker icon in the taskbar and select Sounds.
  • Go to the Playback tab.
  • Ensure your external speakers or headphones are set as the default device (not the monitor).
  • Click Apply and OK.

 

2. Use External Speakers or Headphones:

Since the HP Pavilion 22cwa lacks speakers, you’ll need one of the following:

• External speakers (connected via the 3.5mm audio jack or USB).
• Headphones (plugged into your PC’s audio jack).
• A monitor with built-in speakers (if sound from the monitor is a must, consider a different model).

 

3. Check HDMI Audio (If Using HDMI):

If you’re using an HDMI cable, some PCs might assume the monitor can output sound. If that happens:

• Go to Sound Settings and switch the output to your external speakers instead.

Conclusion: Since your monitor doesn’t have built-in speakers, you’ll need to use external speakers or headphones connected to your PC. Let me know if you need help choosing an audio setup! 😊
