Hi kendeson,

Have the internal speakers and microphone ever worked?

Have you checked that Speaker/HP is selected as the default device on the Playback tab – Device Manager > Sound?

Have you checked in Device Manager, under ‘Sound, video and game controllers’, that ‘Realtek High Definition Audio’ is listed and that properties for this device states ‘working properly’? If not then try reinstalling the audio driver.

The audio driver can also be reinstalled via Vaio Recovery Center – Reinstall Programs or Divers option.

Hi kendeson,

Can you tell us exactly what you have done to get the microphone working and whether you have checked that Speaker/HP is selected as the default device?

Hi kendeson,

A hardware fault is a possibility. Do you see any movement on the volume bar, when sound is playing, on the screen under the Sound properties (as per my screenshot)?

Hi kendeson,

In that case all I can suggest is that you try inserting and removing the headphone jack several times in quick succession to see whether this releases the internal speaker mute mechanism.
