HP laptop - 15-ac131nv: distortion sound/buzz

Hello

I have problems with my speakers. Whenever I have play anything the sound is distorted and there's a little buzz, as if the frequencies/sounds are too much for the speakers to manage. It happens even on system sounds. It started to happen about a week to 10 days, and I think it was once a substantial package of updates installed Windows. I also feel (although I can't be sure) that this does not happen directly when I turn on the computer and play something, but if I play something and then get a sound system or a sound from another source, that's when the distortion occurs. If I plug in my headphones the sound is great and there is no problem.

All my drivers are up to date, I manually installed the last two days ago, but that does not solve the problem. I also made sure the sound levels (audio output) are not too high.  Any ideas would be much appreciated, because it becomes very annoying and I'm beginning to wonder if the speakers are somewhat damaged. There just 2 months I bought this computer, so it's quite upsetting.

Thank you very much

Yes I think that did the trick.

Thanks a lot again!

  • New Apple TV always distorts sound.

    New Apple TV has always distorted sound after 45 to 60 minutes. Cable audio optical is the problem? If so, why Apple does not provide a solution? With more audio systems providing users in this regard, Apple TV will be frustrated.

    You will need to provide more information. I have no idea of what your problem is or what suggestions to provide. What does "always wrong"?  Since the most recent ATV is not optical - should we assume that you have an older ATV or you use optics to power your receiver via the optical output of the TV?

  • Laptop: cannot hear any sound from my computer

    My sound does not work in Windows 10. No sound at all from YouTube videos, music and media players, Windows system sounds, etc.

    The first step in troubleshooting I recommend is the easiest: restart your computer. Sometimes a single application can take control of your audio device and do not let all the other apps use, but you can release this control by restarting.

    Here are a few others not you can try:

    • Run the audio troubleshooting tool in Windows
    • Try to connect headphones or a pair of external speakers
    • Set the default audio device to make sure that your computer sends the audio output of the device
    • If your computer comes with 10 Windows installed, you can restore the driver of its origin in the HP Recovery Manager, or to update the driver through Device Manager
    • If you upgraded your computer to Windows 10, you can update the audio driver in Device Manager
    • Reset your laptop

    These solutions and much more are explained in detail in this document: laptops HP - no noise or distortion of the sound from the speakers.

  • HP laptop - 15-ac158dx: squeaky sound coming from computer speakers, headphones are not affected

    Earlier this week, I received and downloaded the latest update of Windows 10. It went smoothly as planned and everything seemed fine until yesterday, I started to experience a buzzing scratching of my laptop speakers. It was intermittent at first, and then it escalated. Some music and audio as dialogue and certain songs feels this scraping sound along the coast the audio ordinary much.

    To test fade the cause is physical (speakers themselves) or software related (because of update) I did the following.

    I tried what has been said in this issue; http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Audio/HP-15-audio-crackles-unless-headphones-plugged-in/td-p/5....

    I created a system on the laptop restore point and backup all data and uninstalled the audio drivers from the Device Manager and reinstalled.

    It didn't work and now I'm assuming it's a physical problem with the speakers themselves. If this is the case, what should I do? A check appears to show that my warranty is still applicable; should I go with him?

    @cannonfodder-14

    Thanks for joining the HP Forums.
    I'll be happy to help you

    If I understand correctly the helmet function correctly, however, the speakers create excessive noise and in view of the fact that you have already reinstalled the drivers, tried a backup & restore, but the problem persists.

    It is time you contact HP telephone support and get a repair service (free, because your computer is covered under HP warranty).

  • The headset sounds distant/quiet/distorted sound

    Hello..

    I recently had this problem with my laptop Windows XP (service pack 2 is). The sound from my headphones sounds quiet, almost as if the noise comes from far away and a little distorted. I had this problem on another computer and unplug the headphones and plugged back in fixed, but that doesn't fix it not on this laptop. Other people had this problem I know not, but solutions that work for them do not work for me. If necessary, I can give more care retail/computer.
    Thank you
    Zale.

    Hello

    Sorry for the late reply Zale.

    Please provide us with the specifications of the computer such as the motherboard and the sound card if it is internal or external.

    Also provide us the information if you have uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers.

    As well as information, try these steps from now.

    • Make sure that your speakers are properly connected to your computer.

      Many computers have taken three or more who connect to a sound card or sound processor, including a jack for microphone, line-in jack and line-out. Your speakers should be plugged into the line-out socket. If you don't know what it is, try plugging your speakers to each of the jacks to see if any of them produce the sound.

    • In some cases, you can work around the problem by disabling optional speaker effects that are known as improvements. If the disabling effects speaker resolves the problem, you may need to update your audio driver.

    If these steps does not resolve the problem, see the documentation provided with your computer or speakers, or go to the manufacturer's Web site.

  • Pavilion 27xw & Envy 15 laptop: how to keep sound when connected to the laptop

    Have a laptop 15.6-inch Envy running on Windows 10 and rose just a monitor 27 xw Pavilion, they are connected by a HDMI cable included with monitor

    If there is sound broadcast when I connect the HDMI cable it continues to broadcast through the speakers on the laptop, but if it stops then it don't re - start not to broadcast while connected.  If I disconnect the monitor then the sounds spread through the laptop.

    How to work around this problem?

    Jimmy, welcome to the forum.

    You must connect the monitor to the laptop and go to control panel / sound.  You must make sure that the speakers to the monitor are set by default.  If you do not use the monitor all the time, you may need to do this every time you connect it.

  • NB520-108: distorted sound on the video in full screen

    Hello

    I have a harman / kardon nb520-108 (I hope I have the right forum!) and when I maximize the screen on youtube or iplayer say I get a sound distortion.

    I read somewhere that the bios needs an update but I need confirmation of this if it's like the side effect is that it means an installation of the sound system.

    Any ideas what this could be?

    Thanks in advance,

    The distortion of the sound appears only videos streamed from the internet or have you noticed this problem too play videos from the DVD or HARD drive?

    Would it be possible that the distortion of the sound is because of the internet connection is slow?

  • Computer laptop G350 has no sound from speakers

    Well, he came to me to have post a thread after searching the Internet for a few days.

    Computer laptop Lenovo, Vista installed.

    Sound worked perfectly that what it suddenly stopped.

    I plugged in the headset and headphones. None worked.

    This change seems to have occurred after the software installation, Windows Update probably.

    I tried most of the things people have suggested.

    The only temporary fix is a restoration of the system for a few days before when I still had sound. It worked a little, and then he returned to no sound.

    This is not a hardware issue, I can tell you that much.

    At the same time as this, my Itunes has the problem where it will play all the songs and diamond indicator will not move.

    They are connected by a kind of fu * audio upward.

    So... does anyone have solutions that they could share? System Restore fixed the two questions for me, but it does not last.

    See you soon

    Uninstall the audio drivers. Download the latest drivers available (in this case, from the manufacturer's Web site) and install.
