Internal speakers quit on resume from sleep A505-S6005

When the system resumes from sleep the speakers don't work although the headphone jack does.  Tried BIOS and Realtek updates with no luck.  Phone support no help.  It takes a full power down and restart to get them to work again.

PROBLEM SOLVED ITSELF. Still not sure how or why. Ah well.
Whilst I've not had that particular problem, I am having a similar issue. Right speaker is very intermittent right now, although the earphone jack works perfectly in both analog and digital modes. Since I do listen quite a lot via the speakers and this just started tonight, I'd prefer to have an answer soonish.
Although my problem could simply be an issue with heat, that may not be the whole story. Impossible to tell at present. Will be giving the machine an overnight rest, see if the speakers wake up properly. Up to this point, was very happy with the machine. Will be taking to Best Buy to have it checked if the right speaker doesn't play properly tomorrow.
As a writer, I sometimes depend on soundscapes (whether they be music, ocean white noise, etc.) to help me calm my mind to write better. Without the speakers both working, however, I'm left with either earbuds or headphones, either of which can get uncomfortable for in-office use. Anyone have any better ideas?

  • X120E Touchpad inoperable after resuming from sleep

    hello friends I'm a happy X120E user and a tech [pc's, mac's, lans, etc] - I do all sorts of tasks with my x120e and its been great.  I recently "upgraded" my SSD so a fresh new install of Windows 7 was in order.  After updating everything I have a problem I did not experience previously at all - not once in 3 years of use.
    Upon resuming from sleep [and as far as I can remember this only occurs when resuming on battery], the touchpad/cursor is inoperable, frozen in the centered position, and I have found no way to 'wake' it.  I finally have to shutdown/restart to get things functioning again.  Keyboard works fine, but not touchpad or trackpoint [either/both].
    maddeningly, its not consistent in this. sometimes it works, sometimes it does not.
    I have seen the same issue with, and without, the supplied Lenovo Ultranav driver installed. 
    Question: in the X120E implementation, is the touchpad a PCI bus device or a USB device?  I see no power plan options [i.e. "Advanced" >"Allow this device to wake the computer"] available via Device properties. There are no pointer/mouse/touchpad options whatsoever under Power Plan Settings.
    Will Fn+F8 enable/disable the touchpad on this notebook?  or,... should it?

    No. Powering off and on again didn't work. My drive is a Seagate 750GB internal SATA drive in a Vantec NexStar-3 external enclosure. I don't think it is a driver issue. After the device removal error it won't mount on my PC or my Mac via FireWire or USB.
    What I need to know is if there is some way to connect to the drive and make it mount with other software, using some kind of keystroke during startup, or maybe through terminal or something. I can't even try to repair the drive because it won't show up in disk utility.

  • Minor lag from GUI when resume from sleep

    Hey people!
    I've been on archlinux for a couple of months now and I have fixed bugs here and there but something I have just noticed yesterday (it would happen before but I couldn't say when it would occur) is that after my system resume from sleep (it's not slow, it takes 1 or 2 secs) gnome GUI is a bit slow and it doesn't stop till I reboot my pc (it doesn't occur until my pc resumes from sleep).
    It's not that bad but quite annoying. I don't really know how to approach that kind of problem. I think it would be related to something like "gnome is not completly reloaded when resume from sleep and there are some infinite loop going on"...
    I hope someone has a clue in here!

    hey, sorry to revive an old thread, but this was the only other person I could find with this issue.
    I had originally reinstalled power manager and the the pm driver because it wouldn't save any custom power settings. When I finally got it working, it wouldnt wake up from sleep just like the above user's issue.
    Machine is relatively new win7x64 install with all updates (lenovo updates too) installed.
    Would like to avoid a total reinstall if at all possible.

  • Touchpad and trackpoint problems, especially when resuming from sleep

    I am having persistent problems with the touchpad and trackpoint on my L530.  I prefer to use the trackpoint usually, and found that the touchpad was super-sensitive and caused the cursor to jump around during normal (touch) typing so I disabled the touchpad.  Next time the thinkpad resumed from sleep mode, the mouse was frozen.  Nothing would reactivate it.  I had to switch user, which temporarily fixed it, and then reactivate the touchpad. 
    If I try and change trackpad settings at any time other than directly after a reboot, the settings are greyed-out and I can't touch them. Right now, both trackpad and trackpoint are completely dead again, but I've plugged in a USB mouse and that seems to be working, so I've given up fiddling with it.  This will be a pain when I'm moving around with the laptop though!
    The OS is Windows 7.  Yesterday I went looking for the most recent driver, uninstalled the existing one (as per guidance) and installed the new driver.  No luck.  
    I've heard this is a common problem and apparently installing a generic driver works, but I'm not completely sure what to use.  Anyone know? 
    Oh, and I'm not sure if this is related, but quite often when I resume from sleep mode the keyboard is also dead.  However, if I switch user it comes back to life.  So annoying but not the end of the world.

    Thanks for posting this information in this forum. You just saved me a couple thousand dollars!
    Based on my experience if you want to get this problem fixed as soon as possible you need to do the following:
    1. www.apple.com/feedback
    2. Post a video of the problem on www.youtube.com
    3. Send www.apple.com/feedback a link to the video on youtube.
    4. Encourage others to visit your youtube video and to post their own.
    Good luck!

  • Sound not staying muted when resuming from Sleep mode

    The subject says it all. When I resume from Sleep mode the sound is not staying muted. I have found a third party app to get around this but I would rather solve it without having to run something else in startup.
    I have a HP Pavilion dv7-2206tx Entertainment Notebook running Windows 7 with all the latest updates installed.
    Anyone know how to prevent this from happening?

  • Ethernet not connecting when resuming from sleep/hibernate

    I use my mac (Win7) in clamshell mode quite often, and I leave the cables connected (ethernet, power, display, etc). I have noticed since installing the 3.0 Boot Camp drivers that the ethernet connection is not recognized after resuming from sleep/hibernate. I need to disconnect the cable and re-plug it in for the system to recognize the network. Anyone else seeing this?

    Look through Power Options for sleep and network. There should be sleep, low power, etc. And if possible, maybe you can manually update drivers from the vendor (not Apple). And if Windows or your update doesn't work as well, then you can just as easy use Device Manager and "rollback" the last driver upgrade - a great feature. Also, use those Create/Restore Check Points.
    I use to have trouble, got tired of having this issue, and bought a new modem to replace my 5 yr old model. Problem gone. Same can happen regarding routers, sometimes a firmware update, but I had one router that had been superceeded by 4th generation and no firmware patch anymore.

  • X230 hangs when resuming from sleep/hibernate

    Sometimes my x230 becomes unresponsive after resuming from sleep/hibernate.
    The "system" process would take up one core (25%) and the hard disk activity light would stay on all the time. I could switch between applications that were already started, but I couldn't start any new applications, and giving the currently running applications any keyboard or mouse input, would put them in the "not responding" state.
    The only way I found to get out of this state is to do a cold shut-down... holding on the power button for 5 sec.
    This hang would happen quite often... about 3-4 out of 10 resumes... very annoying that I would lose the state of all my open applications.
    I did a system update to the latest driver versions, including a bios update. That seemed to fix the problem... at least for a while... Then it started happening again, althouh less frequently... but it still happens.
    Any ideas?
    thanks

    hi Vicentiu,
    Thanks for posting your result. Based from your results, its great to hear that performance of your machine has improved quite a bit. Although that was not what we were look for
    Anyhow, in this case could you possibly update the "Intel Management Engine" as there a case i worked with not long ago on an x220 which had similar porblems. By updating the BIOS and Intel Management Firmware did the trick.
    It worth the try though. The link for the update can be found below.

  • Msi Z68 GD65 (B3) will not resume from sleep with multiplier above 43

    I have an i5 2500k that is otherwise stable (can pass prime95 for hours) at 4.4 ghz, but no matter what I do I cannot get my computer to resume from sleep properly when I go over 4.3 ghz. At 4.3 ghz it resumes from sleep fine, but once the multiplier goes over 43 it simply will not resume. The monitor stays in standby mode, but my PC's fans spin up and my keyboard backlight turns on.
    I have tried disabling and enabling pll overvoltage, but it does not help.
    It resumes from hibernation fine, but that takes quite a bit longer than resuming from sleep because the POST on this board isn't particularly fast.
    This happened both with my previous card (560 ti) and my current card (7950), so I seriously doubt it is a GPU issue. I have a seasonic x750 PSU, so I doubt it is a power issue. I have very good cpu cooling and my temperatures are pretty low even under load. Is this a board defect? I see that ASUS boards had a similar issue that was apparently fixed, but I can't find as much info about an MSI isssue.

    Being an experienced OC'er, then you know that trial and error is the tried and true time honored method in the attempt to solve problems. The solution I would recommend is to accept an OC of 4.3, stick with hibernation, or continue with experimentation of combinations of settings, or you can hope someone comes along that 'may' know of a 'solution'.

    Big difference between 'apparently' fixed and actually fixed. You might try MSI Technical, but it may be interesting what they say once they know OC'ing is involved.

    Thank you for the patronizing response. Does anyone have a response that is actually useful instead of generic "you don't know what OCing does" comments? I have been OCing for years; I know what it does to a system. I am looking for SOLUTIONS here.
    Some friendly advice is to watch the attitude, or not many will be inclined to offer any assistance at all. Yours is not a situation that the mainboard is non functional, and is more related to an OC'ing behavior.

  • X220 resume from sleep and boot issues

    This is driving me crazy! I have an X220 with Windows 8 and UEFI boot installed.
    It all started when I first installed Windows 8 a few months ago which required me to update my BIOS to the latest version. The installation process often got stuck when booting from the Installation CD (the round circle stopped spinning, the display was at full brightness). Eventually I managed to boot into the Installer (when the boot logo doesn't get stuck, the display is then dimmed to minimum).
    I was quite happy to have a superfast lightweight OS which booted in an instant.. When suddenly it started to get stuck when booting (same issue with the boot logo not spinning anymore). This happens quite randomly, but I often manage to boot (maybe 2-3 times a week, I don't boot often though..). Now, the booting hangs are less of an issue for me but more often that that it fails to resume from sleep. The LEDs flash and then it instantly drops to sleep mode again (well at least the sleep/moon LED is active). This happens quite often as I sleep/resume up to 5-10 times a day (changing lecture rooms, meeting rooms, save battery when the lectures are boring, ...)
    Now after researching and spending hours in debugging this issue, it seems that I'm not the only one having this (or a similar) issue, but often without any definitive solution being specified.
    This is what I have already tried:
    * Upgrade BIOS and SSD firmware to latest
    * Install/update latest drivers
    * Mess around with BIOS options
    ** UEFI/Legacy First options
    ** Intel Virtualization/vt-d
    ** Others..
    I know based on other threads that I'm not the only one experiencing exactly these issues. Has anyone managed to fix this?
    Thank's in advance

  • Update to 10.6.8 - system hang (mouse issue) after resume from sleep

    I am on older
    MacBook Pro3.1
    Intel Core 2 Duo
    2.6GHz
    Run on 10.6.8 almost flawelessly. Shortly after upgrade to 10.6.8 system started to hang periodically after resuming from sleep. Symptoms are that it stops responding to mouse (be it touch pad or USB mouse). Keyboard seems to be ok but system doesn't seem to be fully functional. I am able to ssh from the other computer and 'shutdown -r now' after reboot system seem to be ok until next resume from sleep. What interesting though is that this problem newer manifests then I am using external monitor.

    Found problem. It was due to magic mouse that I left on. I carry this mouse in the laptop bag but rarely use it. Last time I used it (around the same time I install the update) I left it on in the bag. It was apparently disconnecting/connecting on its own and by some reason sometimes was breaking touch pad and other usb mouse connected to laptop, as soon as I switched magic mouse off broblem was fixed

    Hello Achates:
    I did not read the rather long post. If you wish to reinstall OS X 10.4, use your software install DVD. Backup is essential. To minimize your risk, I would use an archive and install:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107120
    In that way, you will have a fresh copy of OS X and your current settings will be preserved.
    Incidentally, I do not agree that the printer problem is best solved by reinstalling OS X. I have had HP printers for sometime and, on one occasion, had difficulty after an upgrade. HP technical support walked me through uninstalling all traces of the HP driver and then reinstalling.

    After all crash diagnostic messages have been shown windows explorer restarts and also other applications restart but a lot of system tools in the system tray are gone so a cold start is needed to restore all tools again.
    I really would appreciate any help and suggestions how to fix this really annoying issue.

  • Airport no longer works after resuming from sleep

    I got a new MacIntel a month or so ago, and it has always done this, under 10.4.4 and now 10.5.5
    When resuming from sleep, airport shows full strength for second, then the signal disappears. NOTHING in settings, reconnecting etc will get it to work again. (this is 'deep' sleep, not just the display turning off)
    If you restart (restart not shut down), then when it comes back, airport is just gone - even the menu bar indicator. The computer now thinks it has no airport installed at all. No matter how many times you restart, there is no longer any airport.
    If you shut down, wait a minute and restart, it works as normal.
    Since airport is the only way I connect to the network, and I don't want to waste electricity, this is unacceptable and clearly a flaw.
    I called tech support and they had me move airport to the top of the list, delete plists and other stuff, none of which made any difference. I'm thinking this is a low level system software fault, and I hope I don't have to take it back for a motherboard replacement.

    I also have this problem, although, not very often.
    I'm still running 10.4.4. This never happened with
    prior versions. Rebooting is the only way to
    correct the problem. Simply turning off Airport and
    turning it back on does not help.
    Thats interesting actually because I Never had any trouble on my G5 iMac of otherwise identical specification, on on intel. Hmm. I was thinking this was an intel issue.
    Wonder if its a hardware problem (though I suspect not).

  • I7 iMac with Bootcamp 3.1 and Windows7 64-bit won't resume from sleep

    When I try to resume from sleep, by clicking the magic mouse button, the screen comes up and I can move the mouse around but the bluetooth keyboard does not work and I can't launch any programs. Have to use the rear button to force a power off and restart.
    Is anyone able to resume from sleep okay and carry on using Windows 7? If so, any tips? Thanks in advance, very frustrating.

    I don't have an iMac, and it seems those have some design "issues" to say the least. I'd say yes, motherboard and/or firmware (UEFI or SMC, or both) could be buggy and at fault.
    Other than resetting SMC and running Apple Hardware Test, not sure what else or next to try.
    I've seen a number of BIOS updates out in the last months for my PC motherboards that have definitely improved sleep, S3, hibernation - EVGA, Gigabytes, and Intel - all X58 vs P55 (Lynnfield Core i5/7 LGA 1156) the iMac uses.
    http://anandtech.com/cpuchipsets/showdoc.aspx?i=3634
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IntelCorei5
    First I switched to Windows Vista/7, then I switched to build-my-own and custom parts. Love the looks of iMac, came close at one point, but I prefer the specs, options, and configure for my own needs in hard drives, graphics over cool factors.
    The iMac even in 2008 when it came with Penryn 64-bit processors never got 64-bit Vista/Boot Camp drivers, and that was why I didn't buy iMac back then, just lack of support I guess, and not seeing the market and need (for a good solid Windows desktop machine by Apple).

  • T440S OSD Brightness control failure after resume from Sleep

    Hi,
    I have owned a T440S since late 2013.
    Relevant Details:
    T440S
    Model : 20AQCTO1WW
    OS : Windows 7 professional (original installation by Lenovo)
    Latest Drivers installed as of June 2014 - including HotKey and Power Management
    HotKey ver : 8.30
    Power Managment : 6.65.1
    Since receiving this laptop, OSD birightness control has always failed to work, i.e. does not appear on the screen
    when using the Fn+F5/F6 key combination nor does it control actual screen brightness AFTER FIRST resuming from sleep
    mode.
    Sequence of steps that demonstrates the above symptom:
    1. OSD brightness works fine after reboot
    2. Putting the machine to sleep (I do not use hibernate) for a duration longer than a few minutes
    3. Open lid  the first time, hit Fn to resume machine
    4. Pressing Fn+F5/F6 key combo does not display the brightness slider nor does it control brightness
    5. Closing the lid and opening it again, causes OSD brightness slider to flash brifely and is now fully functional
        using Fn+F5/F6 keys
    Your tech department should easily be able to re-create this issue on any stock T440S/Win7pro machine, as
    I have seen others comment about this very issue across other T440/OS variants.
    This very same behavior has been there since the beginning.
    When is Lenovo going to FINALLY FIX IT ONCE AND FOR ALL?
