    ahh classic if the HD audio dveice shows a yellow mark, uninstall it in Device Manager (tick delete the driver software if offered), then reinstlal teh GPU package with the audio component selected.

    oof open the classic sound panel with mmsys.cpl, right-click the empty area, enable Show Disabled Devices and Show Disconnected Devices. A disabled HDMI endpoint wont apepar in teh modern Settings page.

    sometimes its purely teh AV receiver. A firmware update on the TV or receiver side can drop audio until the EDID is renegotiated.
