I have this problem that although the internal speakers on my laptop work
fine when I play a CD or an ipod tune I cannot get any sound when I visit
any website and attempt to play a video. I see the picture but there is no
sound.

The sound is not muted and there are no yellow !s in device manager.

Can anyone give me some pointers?

Many thanks,

Noel

I discovered the solution on the Adobe users group website it is caused by
the mapping of wavemapper in the Windows registry.

You need to enter the registry (Start / Run / regedit <OK>)

In the left panel open:

My computer\ HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft|Windows
NT\CurrentVersion\Drivers32

right-click in the right pane and NEW and select "String Value"

Rename the name created as "wavemapper" then double-click on the 'ab' icon
and type "msacm32.drv" and <ENTER>.

Problem solved - no need to reboot.

Hope this helps someone else.

I have same problem with my laptop. I tried doing what you suggested, but it
didn't help. I still have the problem. I've tried everything from restarting
the computer, to trying to uninstall a duplicate audio driver. I am at a loss.
