Today I encountered this problem on my notebook Hp pavilion 14-bf101nl: a red "X" on the sound icon in tray bar and the error "No output audio device is installed".
I tried to check updates in Windows Update, in Hp Support Assistant and in every single audio driver I found on Device Manager:
"Audio Intel for screens" and "NVIDIA Audio Device (Wave Extensible) (WDM)" under "Sound, Video and Game".
"Intel High Definition Audio" (with a yellow triangle) under "Other Devices".
I also tried to restore the system to an earlier point.
Nothing has changed and the problem is still there.
How can I solve?
Solved! Go to Solution.

I suggest you download the latest Audio driver available on our HP Website: https://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/swdetails/HP-Pavilion-14-bf100-Laptop-PC/16842295/m...
