Sound and devices wont unmute,volume goes off automatically when connected to internet

Hello there,
try to right click on the volume near the clock and run a "error scan"...hope it helps...have a nice day over there.

If you're using Windows 7 (it should be similar in any other version) try this:

1. Go to Control Panel > Sound
2. Under Playback tab right-click on your device and select Disable
3. Then right-click on the white space [empty space] in the sane area and select Show disabled devices
4. Enable you device.

This should do it....Good Luck

To solve this problem ,do this; goto start menu >control panel>sound and audio devices
in volume tab under speaker settings , click on "advanced" in speakers tab speaker setup:select desktop stereo speakers
click performance tab Hardware acceleration =full sample rate conversation quality=best. click on apply,and ok
select audio tab in sound and audio output. click on volume ,unmute all . increase all volume to high. close it.
select voice tab in click on volume ,unmute all . increase all volume to high. close it.
click on apply and ok.
then open your audio manager .increase play back volume and unmute all .
important :select default device (sound play back) .to your audio manager's default device . after apply all settings .click ok and close it. in sound and audio output. tick on "use only default devices". . do it and solve it

Hi there

You need to update your sound drivers,to do this go to start menu on your computer and type in the word "device manager",select it from a list of options and click on it you will see a list of components/devices that are working with your computer select the "sound" component.

Click on it and you will see your sound driver,right click the sound driver and you will see a list of options select "update driver software" this automatically search for updates,download them and install it in your computer.

You will have to restart your system for the update to work properly.

1. Check Output cable properly connected to the computer in Green socket.
2. Check computer Volume Balance.
- go to start- control panel-sound & game controller
- check ur volume mute/unmute, volume all balance
3. check sound drivers/update driver
- go to - My Computyer - right click - properties - hardware - device manager - check sound hardware - Uninsall all sound driver
- Then Scan in device manager. it will automatically install again.
4.Then check output volume.

I had this exact same problem. Try this:

Above the keyboard are three hard keys for volume (down, up, and mute). The mute button only mutes, it does NOT unmute. To unmute, push the volume up button a few times. Now try your sounds again.

I was very confused because the hard mute key does not affect the GUI at all (you don't see the little speaker with the red x in the notification area). Hope this helps!

Try updating the hardware driver for it.

Assuming that you are using some flavor of Windows, and guessing it might be XP ....

Right-clickie your My Computer and select the last item in the list, which is called Properties.

Select the Properties tab that is labeled Hardware.
On the Hardware tab, there is a button for Device Manager - click that one.

Look down the list for something called Sound and click the + beside it. In that list, there should be one named something like Integrated Audio. It may have some little symbol next to it, like an ! or perhaps a red X ....

Right-clickie the Integrated Audio (or whatever its called) and choose the option for Update Driver. Allow it to search for the driver Automatically when the Wizard opens up ... it will connect to the internet, find a suitable driver for you, and install it.

That should fix it.

If that does not fix it, you may have an actual hardware failure. If Sound is important enough, you may wish to have someone actually look at it for you.

1. Make sure the cables are correctly connected.
2. Make sure the speakers are on.
3. Start -> Control Panel -> Sound and Audio devices -> select Audio tab -> click Volume in Sound Playback. Unmute the volume controls.

You need to reinstall the drivers. Get these from support.dell.com

Is there any mute/unmute or volume control on the GPS? If so, is the mute/unmute function unmuted, and is the volume all the way up? If you have already checked this stuff, then would say that the device is bad (in which case you can probably send it back to Magellan for a replacement) or the speaker was somehow disconnected( in which case you can't fix it). Has the audio ever worked?
