    Sound stops working randomly


    Hi,

    My acer (aspier v5 171 Series) (windows 8) has been working smoothly for 1 year now, but since couple of days the sound would go off if something is not being played for sometime. then I need to restart to get it back...initially I though it happens after I lock the laptop but today it went off even without locking.

    all the sound icons like speaker icon, volume bar is functional but with no sound.

    any pointers?

    There is a Windows 8 forum. Since this is an issue with a Windows 8 system may be better to post there.

Hi thelastbonbona, It may not be an issue with the keyboard at all. You may try using a good-known keyboard with the system, if available; will help you to isolate the keyboard as the possible root cause. Alternatively, you may use this keyboard with another system to see if the issue...
