    1. Make sure your Windows OS is up-to-date
    2. Make sure your drivers is up-to-date
    3. Trey selecting and re-selecting between different audio devices and replay sound.

    It also might be that there is some common problem with Windows, if the service is not starting after procedures above.

    1. Run command line as admin and execute command "sfc /scannow" and let it run. Reboot after that.
    2. Last step would be try to fix it with dism by entering at command line (run as admin again):
      DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth

    In Start Search type Services.msc and hit the Enter key.

    Scroll down to Windows Audio service and right click on it to select Properties.

    If the service is not running, Start the service. If the service is running, select "STOP."

    Then select "Automatic" on Startup Type. And click on Start to begin the service.

    Scroll down to Windows Audio Endpoint Builder and check if this service is running or not.

    Uninstall and reinstall audio driver from the support site of the manufacturer.
