MacBook Pro 2016 sound output stuck on Airplay

I used my MPB (2016) with my Apple TV a day or two ago. Today I discovered I could get no sound from my desktop sound system. System Preferences —> shows my sound output set to Apple TV (AirPlay), and offers no other choices. (See screen shot.) I've punched the volume controls, mute/unmute ... nothing seems to work. I restarted the machine, but no joy. Suggestions?

I run High Sierra (10.13.1)

MacBook Pro (13-inch, Late 2016, 4 TBT3), macOS High Sierra (10.13.1)

Okay ... problem solved, thanks to "James" at Apple Support. James had me reset the SMC and something else. The fix involved holding down so many keys that I thought I'd need a third hand. But it's all good now.
