Hello, I am having an issue with my sound. The mute button is stuck on and I don't know how to fix it. I tried every method and still can't fix the issue. So, if anyone can help me that would be great. It has been like this all weekend and I don't know how it happened. I might've pressed a certain key to enable it. but I don't know..

It started a few days for me as well and I have tried everything. I am not sure what the issue is either.
