Is there a built-in microphone on an HP ENVY 16-h0250nd with Windows 11 version 23H2?
On my system, I see errors under "Other devices":
- BT Sideband Device
- Digital Microphone Device
I've updated the drivers, deleted the devices, performed a system check with HP software, updated the firmware, etc., but nothing helps.
What could be the problem?

I followed all the instructions exactly as described and in that order. I also restarted the laptop just to be sure. But none of it helped. In Device Manager, I still see exclamation marks next to BT Sideband device and Digital microphone device. Under Audio inputs and outputs, there is only a Speaker (Realtek(R) Audio).
