Windows sounds work but one application is silent

Check the affected application's volume and output device in Volume mixer. Working system sounds show that at least one audio path is available.

By RJ Computers

Quick answer

Check the affected application's volume and output device in Volume mixer. Working system sounds show that at least one audio path is available.

Understand the issue

Play a harmless test sound in the app and compare another application using the same speakers. The app may also have its own mute or output selector. Avoid raising every volume to maximum before identifying the silent control.

Step-by-step checks

  1. Open Sound settings and Volume mixer while the app is running.
  2. Check the application's mute state and level.
  3. Confirm its output device and test at a comfortable volume.
