Youtube videos have gone silent? Suggestions needed

[TundraWookiee]

For some reason when I tried pulling up some youtube videos tonight they are all silent. I've checked other websites and programs and verified that my sound is working. I mainly use Chrome so Flash should be up to date but went ahead and downloaded the newest version and tried Firefox with the same result. Rebooted, played with audio settings in the control panel, still no audio. If anyone knows what could cause this I'm open to possible solutions.

Hmmm that's strange. YouTube seems to be working fine for me. Stupid question: your headphones/speakers are plugged in all the way right? Computer volume up and not on mute?

Yep, like I said, all other audio works fine and youtube volume is up and not muted. I'm stumped...it pulls up and works fine on my other computer and cell phone.

Don't forget that the youtube vids have their own audio as well. You might have turned it down/off.

That happens to me sometimes, I think it's because youtube is such a high traffic website that it's inevitable it will act weird every now and then. Side note did you try a different browser?

Yes, I've tried Chrome, Firefox and Safari.

Already said that I had, but yes, I've checked all of the obvious solutions.

Thanks anyways, I'll just have to hope that it remedies itself. No big deal right now.

It happened on the wifes laptop. 'she uses Firefox'

She tried IE and it worked fine.

I uninstalled FireFox and reinstalled it then YouTube worked fine.

I have been having a lot of crashes with FireFox the last few months... hope it get worked out.

Seems like an adobe flash issue. Uninstall and reinstall adobe flash player.

Happens to me if I click on a video through tapatalk. Might be a link up issue.

Sounds like you've been plugging usb audio devices into the machine ie headsets.. Check your default sound device assuming your in Windows 7, click start in search type the word sound click the one in the control panel. Make sure your speakers are set to the default device.
