Hey All!
I've been scouring the threads and I have still found no answer to a near same issue. Three weeks ago I was watching a youtube video when my sound suddenly changed like it was being played through a cellphone speaker. I plugged my external speakers into the port and the sound was mute, but the sound control was not muted out, it was on maximum. I opened up my system preferences and my output was set to external speakers and the speakers balance was set to equal and the volume was up to FULL.
So I unplugged my speakers and shutdown my MBP . When I turned it back on there was NO start-up chime. Once it loaded I played an itunes song and the sound was "tinny" and sounded like it was ocming out of a cell phone speaker. I plugged in my external speakers and the sound came through Fresh and clear and loud and rich. Other threads said to check to see if the switch inside the audio-out port was stuck and a red light was on, but this wasn't the case.
I've also reset the PRAM three times and the SMC. I've also reinstalled OS 10.7.4. No change with the sound.
There is no chime when I restart the MBP, and the sound ***** if i'm not playing them through my eternal speakers. Can anyone please tell em what the **** is going on with my kick *** laptop! đ
No. I don't have apple care. And I shouldn't have to take this in seeing how the osund works through the audio out port.
Has anyone else experienced this issue which is obviously not by User error.
Thanks.
