Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have looked into your issue about your HP 15-r014tx Notebook PC and issues with the sound crackling or making strange noises. Here is a document on troubleshooting sound.

Please make sure your updates have been done on the Notebook. In the device manager under sound right click and update the driver. Here is another step to try.

1. Right click the Speaker icon in the bottom right corner by your time.
2. Click Playback Devices.
3. Click Speakers/Headphones.
4. Click Properties.
5. Click the Advanced tab on the Properties window.
6. Change the Default Format drop-down to the highest quality.
7. Apply the properties.
8. Click OK to close the properties window.
9. Click OK to close the Playback Devices.

Hope this helps you resolve the sound.

Thanks.

I have the same problem too. But would it help, if I restored my bios? Is my laptop going to be working properly after? Also, how do I go back to the previous bios version?
