My Windows 10 woke up today with dead audio output. It took awhile for me to see the X next to the speaker logo. (If this is already known, sorry I didn't see it, otherwise here we go:) After coffee I found (by Google search) the solution. "With auto updates Win 10 has a flaw ONLY on SOME computers." My Win 10 equipped faithful HP-15 had it.
This simple update solved it. here http://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Search.aspx?q=KB4468550 I used the NON server second offering: Update for Windows 10 1709, Windows 10 1803 and Windows 10 1809 for x64-based Systems (KB4468550) Windows 10 Critical Updates 10/26/2018 n/a 37 KB Push DOWNLOAD, then reboot. Of course I forgot to reboot for awhile. My second cup of coffee woke me up and then I did reboot. Now it works. The hint is the X on the spkr. logo at the bottom of the page.
