[Melldori]

Hello, can someone help me.

My HP 14-am 015tx have no sound coming from speaker, scorsing sound from headphone, but sound comeout from TV when connected thru HDMI.

according to device manager all sound devices are working and drivers are up  to date. (Intel(R) Display Audio & Realtek High Definition Audio)

I have run the diagnostic tool for audio in Windows 10 - no change

I went on HP's website and ran through all items in the audio troubleshooter that including uninstall, install newest driver from HP, hard reset, updating bios. 

I am using 6.0.1.8036 driver version

A very warm welcome to the HP community. A very good day to you. 

I understand that you have an HP Notebook - 14-am015tx. I read that there is no sound from the laptop speakers and through the headphones you hear harsh sound. You have run the audio troubleshooter in Windows and have uninstalled and reinstall the audio drivers, updated the BIOS and the issue persists. You've done a remarkable job performing the steps. I appreciate the steps you have performed and have certainly done a good job.

To provide an accurate resolution, I need a few more details: 

• Did any hardware changes happen on the laptop recently post which the sound issue started?
• Do you have an external pair of speakers to check with?

Meanwhile, Let us run the hardware tests on audio by following the below steps:

• Hold the power button for at least five seconds to turn off the computer.

• Turn on the computer and immediately press the F2 key repeatedly, about once every second.

• The HP PC Hardware Diagnostics (UEFI) main menu is displayed.

• Select component tests.

• Please initiate a test on the Audio - The Audio Playback Test checks your system to make sure the audio device is functioning properly. During the test, a few music notes are played in sequence and then repeated. This test takes 1 minute to complete. Click Audio, then click Run once. Choose either the speakers or the headphones. When asked, enter the number of notes you heard.

Hope this helps. Keep me posted on the results. Cheers! 🙂
