Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
iPad 7th gen (WiFi only) operating on iPadOS 14.8 No sound from any apps (except YouTube) unless headphones are plugged in. I have rebooted, reset, deleted apps, reinstalled apps, checked all settings, etc. None of these steps has altered the issue. I see many comments and fixes from the past, but none recently. Does anyone know of further steps or settings for me to try?

Another website assisted in the fix. The 14 update to the iPad toggled the mute function within the control center. This function was not in the iPad control center but once it was added it could be toggled off. Apps now have sound. I don’t know if the 15 update will do same.

BigJer1,
Thanks for getting back to us and for providing that information. Since this is isolated specifically to the gaming apps on your iPad, we suggest following these steps: If an app on your iPhone or iPad stops responding, closes unexpectedly, or won’t open
In addition, you'll also want to contact the app developer for your games to review this further. Here's how: How to contact an app developer
Kind regards.
hello! Thanks for the tips but none of those corrected the issue. The call functions (FaceTime, audio call, etc) work fine. YouTube and any streaming apps (Disney, prime, etc) have sound normally. Just not the gaming apps.
No sound from apps
