The sound of media on my laptop is not working across all programs (youtube in chromium, vlc, etc). However, the clicking sounds that occur as I change the volume DO work as does the "test speakers" button in the sound menu.
This regardless of what the sound output channel is set to in settings: speakers or headphones.
The issue started after connecting my laptop to hdmi, and redirecting my sound to hdmi. I no longer have access to the hdmi screen so I can't connect to it again for testing.
Anyone know what could cause this or how to fix it?
