Hi @sipun942l 

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community!

 

Thanks for posting your query! We're here to help you get back up and running.

 

I understand how frustrating this must be, especially since HP Hardware Diagnostics confirms that your AMD Microphone Array is functioning properly, yet it still isn’t picking up sound. You’ve done a great job troubleshooting so far, and I appreciate your patience.

 

Based on the B&O Audio Control panel and Windows Sound Properties in your screenshot, your microphone is correctly set as the default recording device. Let’s go through some HP-specific troubleshooting steps to resolve this issue:

 

1. Check Microphone Privacy Settings

  • Open SettingsPrivacy & SecurityMicrophone.
  • Ensure Microphone access is enabled.
  • Scroll down and verify that apps like Voice Recorder and Zoom have permission to use the microphone.

2. Adjust Microphone Levels & Boost

  • Open Sound SettingsRecording Devices.
  • Select Microphone Array (AMD Audio Device)Properties.
  • Go to the Levels tab and ensure:
    • Microphone volume is set to 100.
    • Microphone Boost is increased (if available).

3. Disable Audio Enhancements

  • In Microphone Properties, go to the Enhancements tab.
  • Check Disable all enhancements.
  • Click Apply and OK.

4. Update AMD Audio Drivers

  • Visit the HP Support page for your Victus 15-fb0000.
  • Download and install the latest AMD Audio drivers.

5. Run Windows Troubleshooter

  • Open SettingsSystemTroubleshootOther Troubleshooters.
  • Select Recording Audio and run the troubleshooter.

6. Test with HP Audio Check

  • Open HP Support AssistantTroubleshooting & Fixes.
  • Run HP Audio Check to diagnose microphone issues.

 

Let me know how it goes, and I’ll be happy to assist further! I appreciate your patience while we work through this.

Ok so i tried all the methood that you had mentioned. but none of them helped me..

1.Microphone access was already enabled and turned on for all apps

2.i had already set the input volume to 100%. Although the audio boost option was unavailable 

3.I disabled all audio enhancements also disabled b&o audio effects and tried again but it is not working.

4.Sorry but i had forgot to mention my model is Victus 15- fb0050ax and the latest audio driver is already installed.

5. Itried to run windows audio troubleshooter but i don't know why it's not working like legacy version instead it's opening gethelp app which is useless.

6.same for hp support assistant. Using this i reistalled my audio driver and nope nothing chaged. And the diagnosis part showing everything is fine.. Screenshot (122).pngScreenshot (121).pngScreenshot (119).png
