Macbook Pro Chrome Browser sound not working through speakers but works fine through headphones

For some reason my chrome browsers sound doesn't work through the laptops built in speakers, but when I plug in my headphones it works fine. I've tried changing chrome settings for sound but all my settings seem fine. I've restarted chrome. I've also restarted the laptop. The problem persists.


This problem just started occurring one morning for no reason.


For other apps the speakers seem to be working fine.


Any advice appreciated.

I fixed it.


If you click top right on that icon next to Siri which looks like two input switches stacked on top of each other. Then click on "sound" and had to change my output to "Macbook Pro Speakers". It was on "Speaker Audio Recorder" because I was using a video recorder software.
