New laptop - beats audio not working properly

Product name:HP  Envy dv7t-7300 Quad Edition
OS: Windoze 8
Issue:  This is a brand new notebook.  We were using Skype video and the sound volume was very poor (very low).  So we decided to plug in the USB-powered speakers we have used on a Dell laptop for hte last year.  There was no sound.  We unplugged the speakers and there was no sound from the notebook.  On a whim, Iplugged the speakers back in and out and suddenly the enhanced (beats) audio started to work, but we could not control the voilume (the volume bar showed 0% but the sound was extremely loud.  I played a youtubs video and the sound was still loud.  I played a system sound from the control panel and the sound was extreme;y loud..  I plugged the speakers back in and there was again no sound.  I unplugged them and again there was no sound.
No sound.  I have rebooted twice and still no sound.  Windoze 8 shows everything working fine.  It apperas that ther is a hardware mechaniscal issue in the headphone plug.  Also, when watching the sound controls on Windoze 8, Control Panel -> Hardware and Sound -> Sound, there are currently three sound devices onthe Volume Mixer display:  S235HL, System Sounds, and HPConnectRe.....    When I plug in the speaker mini-plug, the S235HL panel disappears.  When I unplug the mini plug, the S235HL display momentarily (1/4 second) appears and then disappears.  When I do it a third time, I get a pull down on the System Sounds which allows me to make the S23HL display appear again.
I'm pretty sure that there is supposed to be some way to control the volumn on the beats audio, and I'm pretty sure that the headp[hones jack is supposed to work properly like it has on my presios 5 or 6 laptops.  Is this a mechanical issue?  Or are we doing something wrong?

Hello nancyes.  I understand you're having trouble with your sound.
Have you tried uninstalling the device's drivers and allowing Windows to reinstall them?  Try the following.
From either the Metro or Desktop views press the Windows+X key combination.  This opens the Context Menu.
Select Device Manager.
Expand the "Sound, video, and game controllers" section.
Right click on your audio device and select "Uninstall."
Now reboot your PC.
Windows will automatically install the device when it loads.
Verify whether the problem persists.
I'll keep an eye out for your response.  I hope you have a great day!

  • HT201210 AUDIO NOT WORKING PROPERLY AFTER INSTALLED IOS7

    After installed ios 7
    photos not able to see fully
    audio not working properly.... [no treble, no depth in sound, very low soung even the volume is full]
    get strucks while playing games

    This board is full of people that are update crazy...
    even when they have perfectly good working systems.
    i know i thought well it's just a security update not a major update.
    Best advice... whenever updating the OS, unplug all
    firewire devices.
    will take note of that from now on.
    Was this auto-update? Try downloading the file and
    running the update again with all firewire devices
    unplugged.
    While the 828 is disconnected perform the factory
    reset
    again.
    Disconnect the firewire cable from the 828mkII
    -Press the Setup knob
    -Turn the Setup knob all the way to the right
    -Press the Select knob
    -Press the Value knob
    -Power off the interface and plug the firewire cable
    back
    in
    -Power the interface back on
    i have the original 828 not mark 2, so no reset i know of, just power on off.
    After the Mac updates... reboot and plugin the 828,
    see if that doesn't get you going.

    cheers pancenter, i'll give it a whirl updating without the interface plugged in. thanks for all your help.

  • HP Pavilion p7-1421 Desktop PC BEATS AUDIO not working.

    Hi, new here with thankfully my first problem with the desktop in the subject line.
    Somewhere along the way, the Beats Audio stopped working correctly. The Equalizer
    sliders will not move at all, and the "Test Speakers" button will highlight the left, then right
    speaker, but no sound will be produced.
    For background, I did install StartDoc, a program that gives one back the original Windows 7 "Start"
    button and desktop. Other than that, I have not installed anything, except the reccommended HP upgrades.
    Also, the machine is obviously running Windows 8, and I have NOT switched to 8.1.
    I see on the Notebook page lots of questions re. Beats not working and solutions, but each user is asked
    for the specific model, OS etc. This is why I chose to post a new thread, so that the experts can address
    my exact machine.
    Thanks in advance,
    John

    Enter "Recovery Manager" and then select Recovery Manager from the list. Click "Yes "at the User Account Control.
    Select "Hardware Driver Reinstallation". Select "Next". Select 'IDT High Definition Audio CODEC".
    Select "Next"
    Follow prompts to reinstall and reboot your PC.

  • My laptop speakers are not working properly so wanted to visit service centers of hp in london

    from yesterday night my laptop HP pavilion g6 speakers are not working properly. out of many only one speaker is working so i want to visit authorized service centers so that i can fix the issue.

    Hi,
    Try the following.
    Download the IDT Audio installer on the link below and save it to your Downloads folder.
    http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp56001-56500/sp5646​0.exe
    When done, open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager and open up Sound, Video and Game Controllers.  Right click the IDT device and select Uninstall - you should also get a prompt to remove the current driver, tick the box to allow this and then proceed with the uninstall.
    When complete, shut down the notebook, unplug the AC Adapter and then remove the battery.  Hold  down the Power button for 30 seconds.  Re-insert the battery and plug in the AC Adapter.
    Tap away at the esc key as you start the notebook to launch the Start-up Menu and then select f10 to enter the bios menu.  Press f5 to load the defaults ( this is sometimes f9, but the menu at the bottom will show the correct key ), use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.  Press f10 to save the setting and again use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.
    Let Windows fully load - it will automatically load an audio driver, but just let this complete.  Then open your Downloads folder, right click on the IDT installer and select 'Run as Administrator' to start the installation.  When this has completed, right click the speaker icon in the Taskbar and select Playback Devices.  Left click 'Speakers and Headphones' once to highlight it and then click the Set Default button - check if this has had any effect on the audio issue.

  • MSI 865PE NEO FISR2 Audio not working properly

    The audio on my board is not working properly.  I have it set for 6 channel and am using Creative Labs Inspire 5.1 Speakers that have 3 inputs that match the 3 output jacks on the mobo.  However, its just not right.  It is sending anything to all 5.1 speakers and also to the proper speaker at same time.  So every sound is coming through all speakers and it a tad louder on the speaker it should be coming out on.  Anyone else have any clue as to what setting I can change to correct this or is this something wrong with the cmedia drivers?

    The answer to all your suggestions is yes, already did it and in the demo app the sounds work fine.  Its just so odd, I may just go to Circuit City tomorrow and buy another set of speakers and see if it is possibly them that are causing the issue.  Then if so, I'll just return the Creative Labs ones as I just bought them 2 weeks ago and CC has great return policy
    Actually, one of your questions I did not either understand what you meant or did not see the option Quote
    Did you enable the output port correctly - LR to LR, surround to surround, center/lfe to center/lfe
     The only thing I see is setting phones, 2, 4 or 6 channel in the cmedia control panel and then I plugged in the proper cables.

  • Upper speaker in my new iPhone 4 does not work properly. I hear strange sounds instead of speech. What to o?

    Upper speaker in my new iPhone 4 does not work. When somebody calls me I hear only strange sounds. Please, help!

    A couple of other things you can try -
    With my 2010 Ford Fusion (and SYNC) I received the same not optimized message a few times. There were several things I had to do but eventually, I got it cleared up. Not sure exactly how this will translate to your Toyota but maybe it will.
    - Try resetting the iPhone via a power off/on or a hard reset where you hold the home and power buttons. Then power back on and plug into your USB port.
    - In my case I had an issue with SYNC in my car where I needed to reset the USB port in my car. Not sure if Toyota has something similar. The fact that you said it won't charge makes me wonder if the USB port got disabled in your car. This happened in my car and an easy reset for me was to remove a fuse for a few minutes and replace.
    - Update your iPhone in iTunes and resync it there. Then try connecting again in yor car.
    - Delete and re pair your iPhone from your Toyota system
    Hope something here helps. Thanks

    I grasp that you are having an issue with your Beats Audio on your new computer.
    Here is a link to the 15-p117na Software & Drivers.  I noticed the recommended audio driver for your notebook is

    When you installed non recommended drivers as they have not been tested on your system the outcome is unknown.  They may or may not work correctly.
    Here is a link to Beats Audio Console (Windows 8) that will guide you.
    Have you done all your Windows updates?
    Have you ran the HP Support Assistant to obtain any HP updates.

  • New Laptop - itunes will not work

    I had itunes installed on my old laptop and it worked fine with my ipod touch ( 2.2.1). Now I have a new laptop, have installed itunes and every time i connect my ipod touch i get the message saying "itune has stopped working - windows is searching for a solution". The solution never comes. Do I have to uninstall itunes from the old laptop or deactivate that account or something in order to use my itunes account ( and all that is contained within it) on this new laptop? Any help greatly appreciated. Thanks

    It all depends on exactly how you moved the library from your old computer.
    Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
    Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes .
