HP Spectre x360. On board speakers do not work. Auto output does. None of the tests show any problems. I have up graded the drivers and such. I am a techie who is out of ideas. Thanks for any help.

Please

1. Right click speaker icon (bottom right corner)

2. Select Sound settings

What do you see on Output section ? Please choose "Speakers" for the first item (Choose where to play sound)

Regards.

I have only one choice, speakers/headphones.

That means system will automatically switch between them, it should use speakers when no headphones. Software wise nothing wrong. Did it work before you plug in headphones the first time ?

The laptop is several years old and mainly used without local sound, mostly I use hdmi or no sound. I tried contact cleaner just on the chance the problem was dirty contacts on the jack. No effect. Since I rarily us the onboard sound I have desided to just write it off. Thanks for the ideas.
