When watching video (eg BBC F1 clips, YouTube, road tests on other sites, etc), my Vista Ultra laptop will often start playing with no sound. I've discovered I can get the sound by right clicking the video window, choosing the Flash Player Settings, and then going to the Microphone tab. I don't have to change anything, just have to access the microphone tab!
This is intermittant but I cannot recognise any consistant pattern, however it happens the majority of times. (As a variation to the sound/no sound, sometimes there is no sound during a short intro commercial, with normal audio starting with the main clip!)
My Windows7 Prof laptop behaves perfectly and I didn't have this problem with an XP machine either.
Any ideas, anyone?
