ok so if the HD audio device shows a yellow mark, uninstall it in Device Manager (tick delete the drievr software if offered), then reinstall teh GPU package with the audio component selected. worked for me anyway 🤷

lol

  1. since updating the graphics driver my monitor with speakers gets no audio over HDMI at all.

    USB Audio Device Properties

    USB Audio Device Properties
    Device status:
    This device cannot start. (Code 10)
    
    {Operation Failed}
    The requested operation was unsuccessful.
    

    I tried another HDMI cable, another port, and restarting the monitor with speakers. In Sound settings the HDMI device doesnt even appear, and in Device Manager I dont see a high definition audio device for teh GPU anymore 😅 It worked yesterday on the old ForceWare Driver 81.85 Certified. Help? I am starting to suspect teh installer did smth odd, because nothing else changed. The monitor with speakers itself works fine with a game console on teh next input.

  2. check the projectors input settings... some TVs and receivers renegotiate audio formats after a driver change... power-cycling the projector with the PC on, or changing teh TVs HDMI audio mode to PCM, can bring teh endpoint back. lmk how it goes

    nothing is more permanent than a temporary workaround

  3. lol same thing happened to me open the classic sound panel with mmsys.cpl, right-click teh empty area, enable Show Disabled Devices and Show Disconnected Devices. A disabled HDMI endpoint wont appear in the modern Settings page. good luck man!
