Hi,
I've just installed Windows 10 preview on my iMac Retina with Yosemite. Everything works great but, I have no sound when using windows, I do have sound when on Yosemite. I've looked and still haven't found a working solution, any help would be appreciated?
Thank you. Jerry

Hi,
Just got back home and I'm getting a what sounds like a testing sound all the time on the windows side. Went from no sound to a sound every2-3 seconds. Everything in device manager looks good. This sound is driving me crazy, I have to mute it and can't get it to stop. Help please?
Thanks, Jerry
If the sound happens with touching the mouse or keyboard, check any email programs. If it happens on any mouse movement or keyboard input, check Ease of Access and Sound control panels for which sounds may have been enabled.
It happens without touching either the keyboard or mouse. It won't stop.
Does sound go away if you shutdown your browser(s)?
No it's still there. It's coming from my iMac speakers only on the windows side. But if I play music through YouTube I hear the music through the headphone jack external speakers. But that **** sound won't go away. Did a repair lost all my sounds again. Just did another repair and that sound came back.
I went into sounds and turned them off and the sound went away...I listened to every sound there before I turned it off and none of them sounded like the sound I was getting. At least I can still hear my music through external speakers. I'm totally confused. Hopefully you'll have more for me?
Thanks Jerry
Check your Sound Output devices. Here is my example.
Speakers...Cirrus Logic CS4206B (AB122) ready
Headphones...Cirrus Logic CS4206B (AB122) default
Digital Audio (S/PDIF) Cirrus Logic CS4206B (AB122) ready
I've tried changing the defaults and I still get the sound
Look at the Sounds Tab. Also look at Control Panel Sounds. Is it occurring at regular intervals? Check if you have enabled sounds with clock ticks?
I've looked all over, it occurs all the time. Last night I turned off sounds in properties and then the sound went away. Turned them back on and the sound went away. Got up this morning and there're back again. Once again turned them off and back on and the sound went away. This is the only way to get it to stop for now. I sure hope there is a way to fix this...thanks for helping out. As of now, that sound is gone...but once I restart into windows it come back.

If you plug and unplug your headset often, the iMac 5k (iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, Late 2014) - Technical Specifications) has a combined analog/digital port, which has a microswitch to control the analog/digital output . If you look at the port at an angle, do you see a red light? This is the Optical laser. The switch can be stuck and cause misbehavior. Usually, plugging/unplugging the headphone plug gently a couple of times and turn it off.
The other option is to How to Reset NVRAM on your Mac - Apple Support and test.
No red light laser that I can see. I just rebooted back into windows and the sound is back. I turned off windows sound again and this time the sound didn't go away. I'm going to try the reset of NVRAM and I'll let you know.
Did the rest of the NVRAM and for now that seems to have fixed it. I'm leaving for a bit and I'll restart windows later and give you a update.
Thank you for all your help!!
Thanks again
Thanks again for all your help, as of now, all is working well.
