HP Recommended
HP Spectre x360 Convertible
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Product number 4WW36UA#ABA.

 

Usually waking out from sleep, no matter what you do, there is no sound coming out of the speakers or the headphones.

The Speaker/Headphone icon on the right of the taskbar seems to work fine at first, but no volume change causes any feedback sound. After a while, a red X appears next to the taskbar speaker. If clicked, a completely useless troubleshooter activates showing no avilable solution.

 

If the machine is restarted, the sound comes back again. That's the "solution" the support assistant's virtual assistant leads you to. ANYWAY, I don't find it an acceptable practice to restart the computer every time this happens.

 

The device has Win10 preinstalled and updated regularly.

No changes were done to the device prior to the fault appearance.

It happened since the first days of use.
