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 appear in the modern Settings page.

  1. I'm genuinely confused. Picture on my AV receiver is great, but sound comes out of teh laptop speakers only.

    USB Audio Device Properties

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

    it started right after the NVIDIA driver update. ive checked the volume mixer, default device, everything I know of. theres simply no HDMI output to choose. is there a component I need to install separately? my family is now watching with subtitles and judging me, so any help would be very welcome. I am comfortable reinstalling the driver if that is what it takes.
