Latitude

webbrewers · ‎05-26-2022

Work issued Latitude 7410 just started popping (or clicking) when it detects an audio source. It's connected to an external sound system via the dock but I never had this issue before. It happens for example, when I scroll down a facebook page and videos on the page start to load and/or are recognized. It seems like there's a power management option that turns on the external gear when it senses there's some audio available. Is there a way to look at that and fix?

I see you resolved the issue by changing registry settings on your computer. Thanks for letting us know the issue is resolved.

Thanks but I'm not concerned about the warranty, I just want to know if there's a way to force audio to stay on and avoid the pop when it detects an audio source.

I have exactly the same laptop and exactly the same problem.

I guess you have the same issue as we had on Latitude 7420. Its the energy saving mode. To disabled follow:

Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4d36e96c-e325-11ce-bfc1-08002be10318}\0003\PowerSettings

(0003 can vary. its important that the name is "Realtek Audio".)

Thanks. I have about 20 instances of Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4d36e96c-e325-11ce-bfc1-08002be10318} and some have \0003\ but none of those have a power settings key. Any idea where else I could look?

You should go through all subfolders 0000 0001 0002 etc. until you find the key "DriverDesc = Realtek Audio". This folder has subfolder "PowerSettings".
