Speaker crackles

[Sedoy1]

My left speaker crackles for a 10-30 seconds after playing audio. The right one doesn't have the same issue. Laptop is new. I've reinstalled all drivers.

I reviewed your post and I understand that the left speaker crackles when you play audio.

Don’t worry, I assure you I will try my best to get this sorted.

What is the product number of your computer?

What is the version of Windows you are using? (Like 1903, 1909 or 2004)

Meanwhile, I recommend you run the audio troubleshooter and it will automatically find and fix the audio issue.

Here is how it is done.

  - Launch Troubleshooting by typing and clicking “Troubleshooting” in Windows search.

  - Click on "Playing Audio".

  - Follow the on-screen instructions.

Let me know how it goes and you have a great day!

I've returned this laptop to the market and chosen another one, but no HP
