Dear Tom's Hardware users,

I switched from iTunes to Mediamonkey with the arrival of my new laptop. No troubles thus far. Yesterday evening I updated my windows 8 to 8.1. Everything seems to be working well, except Mediamonkey and VLC audio output.
VLC mediaplayer does play the video, but no sound as well. Maybe the two problems are related. Youtube does play sound. Troubleshooting 'playing audio' does not give results. Lenovo U410.

Now the song is tracked - the bar becomes blue - but then stops. Every song gets stucked at 0:00.
Anybody any idea what is caused this problem(well the update)?
And more important, how to solve it?

Thanks in advance and with kind regards,
Eise

Can you tell me how you solved it by going to sound? I am having the same problem and am at a loss as to how to fix it.

I'm having the same problem. I'm trying the new drivers posted on the Lenovo site here.
I'll let you know if the audio or video drivers work.

Disabling Audio Enhance in control panel fixed the problem for me.

Thanks! Downloaded the audio driver for my Yoga 13 and now my iTunes and VLC are now playing sound!
