speaker issue on zephyrus G16 2024

[shahabgsm]

hey everyone

 I recently purchased a brand-new ASUS Zephyrus G16 laptop, and I’ve been encountering some speaker-related problems. Less than two months after purchase, the speakers have started making annoying noises.

Specifically, I’ve noticed the following issues:

• Intermittent sound
• Crackling or popping sounds

I’ve tried basic troubleshooting steps, such as checking connections and adjusting settings, but the problem persists. I believe this is a hardware issue, as it occurs across different applications and communication platforms (e.g., Microsoft Teams, Skype).

Could you please advise me on how to resolve this issue? I appreciate your prompt assistance in ensuring that my laptop functions optimally.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Hi @shahabgsm ,

Have you updated your BIOS version to the latest version 317 and removed and reinstalled the latest versions of audio-related drivers (as listed below) to test? 

Additionally, have you tried connecting headphones or external speakers to see if the issue persists? Thank you.

• Intel(R) SST (V20.40.10149.10)
• Cirrus SmartAMP Driver (V23.26.47.781)
• Microsoft Effect Pack Driver (V1.0.31.0)
• Dolby Atmos driver (V8.1220.541.29.5)

Hi dear @Anbby_ROG ,

I’ve tried the suggested solution, but unfortunately, the issue persists. It now appears to be a hardware problem. Initially, the left speakers became noisy, and now the right ones are also affected. The only recent change was a BIOS update to version 317, but even after rolling back to version 313, the issue remains.

Thank you for your assistance.
