check this

Check Control Panel/ Sound & Audio Devices/ Audio tab/ Sound Playback click on down arrow and check that the correct audio is selected. Typically the problem will be they something like "modem line 0 playback" might have been substituted for the proper audio device

also in Device Manager / System Devices / is the Microsoft Universal Audio Architecture or Microsoft UAA shown as installed
