Go to sounds on the bottom right side of your screen and select sounds option. Or go to hardware and sounds in control panel. Hit playback devices and change the sources.Accept if its Helpful.

Monitors usually don't allow "mixed" inputs.
The 3.5mm audio input is tied up with VGA video input.
If you use HDMI video input, you also have to use HDMI audio input.0 -
Which model of the QG271 do you have? Is the audio jack an input or output? On some models in that line there are no speakers installed and the jack is an output to connect speakers to play the HDMI sound.

More likely something has muted the volume for that output device. There's not a lot that can go wrong hardware-wise.

might be because of the update or drivers also. Try reinstalling the drives or roll back drivers in device manager. if still try to install the drivers from acer site.seaview said:

It's much simpler than that.
His computer had HDMI audio driver as default --- so he had sound on his monitor. He didn't realize that the 3.5mm cable that he hooked up a thousand years ago served no purpose at all. Microsoft started pushing OS updates and driver updates via windows update --- causing the default to switch to realtek driver (and so no audio for his monitor).

ok, I had a good look at all the sound and drivers tonight, there was no option for HDMI in my setting so I went to the device manager and forced sound to install amd hdmi drivers (i have a radeon 580 card) after reboot it worked, so Joe9844 is correct, not sure why then acer instructs you if you want sound to connect it too realtek sound port. thanks all1

Dear all,
my QG271 bii has no sound from the speakers but I'm not sure speakers are available on my model.
Part Number is UM.HQ1EE.001.
Looking at the below menù screen the volume seems to be disabled:
Any suggestion?
Thanks

The UM.HQ1EE.001 model does not have speakers in it.
