Follow these checks in Audio Fix →When this guide applies
Faint Bluetooth media; no HDMI/TV troubleshooting.
Connection scope: Bluetooth. Symptom: Playback is too quiet or uneven.
This is a documented check, not a diagnosis of your equipment. The model name does not confirm the selected input, mode, software or connected partner.
If your exact model or a required setting is unknown, use the “I don’t know” branch below. Do not apply a similarly named model’s instructions.
Checks and possible outcomes
Start at step-0. Follow the link that matches what you actually observe. Alternative branches are not a single sequence of actions.
step-0
Does the intended Bluetooth source show connected?
A saved pairing or app product tile is not a live media connection.
Look for: Confirm the stated prerequisite or observation; unknown is not a fault diagnosis.
- If Yes / this check is completed → Inspect the selected input
- If No / this cannot be confirmed → Keep the observation for manufacturer support
