Greetings. I recently had my laptop repaired (not though acer :l), after I received it and took it home, thinking all is well I tried playing audio but nothing came out of the internal speakers. It only played through headphones and external speakers from the jack. It did this before and I was able to fix it by reinstalling the drivers and plugging the headphones into the jack and wiggle it around, that worked the first time. It didn't now. Is this a hardware problem? Could they have had disrupted something while fixing the other problem? 
Edit. There's also a slight knocking-like sound where the speakers are when audio is played, it can only be heard when you have it close to your ear.

    If you are running Windows 10 then you may have encountered the famous Realtek bug after updating to the Creators Update. New drivers should help (not the ones from Acer).
