Very high and loud beeping sound - Spectre 360 15inch

[MC_Arango]

Extremely loud beeping from the left-hand side of the computer. ... The beeping is constant in pitch and volume, and the only way to stop it is by closing the program which is playing sound. 

I have tried to uninstall and re-install the speaker driver but it did not work. How can I resolve this issue?

Hi @Asmita6658

I have tried all the options you gave me but none of them work. Do you know what can I do in my case? I bought this computer 2 months ago.
