How to direct the sound from the TV application to the screen speakers instead of through the device?

Question

Accepted Answer

The Advantech AIM77S tablet is equipped with built-in speakers and has a 3.5 mm audio jack (CTIA) for connecting headphones or external audio devices. By default, the sound from applications should be directed to the tablet's speakers unless a Bluetooth device or external audio jack is currently connected.

Here’s how to check and configure audio routing to the screen speakers on your AIM77S:

Check Bluetooth and audio connections: Go to Settings > Bluetooth and disable all connected Bluetooth devices (headphones, speakers, earbuds). Also, ensure that no external audio jack is plugged into the tablet's CTIA jack (G). If a device is connected, the sound will automatically redirect to it.
Check the volume selector: Press the Volume buttons on the side of the tablet (L) to display the volume slider. You will see an icon indicating the current audio output. If it shows an audio jack or a Bluetooth device, you can tap the icon to switch to the tablet's speakers.
Check the audio settings of the TV application: Open the TV application and go to its Settings or Menu (usually accessible via a gear icon). Look for an option labeled "Audio", "Sound output", or "Audio device" and ensure that "Speakers" or "Device speakers" is selected instead of a Bluetooth or external device.
Restart the application: Completely close the TV application by removing it from the recent apps list, then reopen it to apply the changed audio settings.

If the sound is coming out of a different output despite these checks, it is usually due to an active Bluetooth pairing. Go to Settings > Bluetooth > Paired devices and forget any audio device that should not be receiving sound, then try again.

For AIM77S models with docking accessories, also check that you have not connected an external speaker via the Pogo pin connector (O) located at the base of the tablet.
