Restoring your Default Audio Device back to the Sound Card

When you install the HP Internet Handset on the computer, it is automatically set by Windows as the
default audio device. All sounds, such as music, Windows, and game sounds, play through the phone
and not the computer speakers. To play these sounds through the computer speakers, you need to change
a few settings in the Sounds and Audio Devices Properties that should be displayed on screen at the end
of the software installation. (Notice that HP Internet Handset is the default device for both Sound playback
and Sound recording.)

NOTE:

Changing the settings to allow sounds to play through the computer speakers does not affect the

functionality of the HP Internet Handset.

1 Select your sound card from the Sound playback drop-down list.
2 Select your sound card from the Sound recording list.

In our example, the sound card is Realtek AC97 Audio; yours might be different.

3 Click OK to play all music, Windows, and game sounds through the computer speakers.
