RAM speed and volume Control

[Kevin817]

Hi! I'm having a couple of issues on my HP 15s

1) An issue with my volume control. When I'm using the built in speakers I cannot control the volume, The slider works but the volume is stuck at a certain level and I can only mute. But the volume control works when I'm using Bluetooth or a wired headset. The issue is there just for the Built in speakers.

2) It says my laptop is supposed to have a RAM speed of 3200MHz but when i open task manager and check the ram speed under memory it says 2667MHz.

Is there any way to fix these issues? (8GBRam)

It has the Ryzen 5 4500U

Thanks in advance.
