Windows 10: Can't change volume in windows 24h2

So I just noticed an issue that when I start my laptop from sleep today, the sound is VERY loud, but the volume bar remains 14. Neither reinstall drivers nor restarting the system works. I made no changes to the system and it seemed to work pretty well. One way I found a solution is to go to settings->sound->volume mixer and change the volume for each apps manually. However, I can't modify the volume effectively using this way, so please help me. My laptop: Alienware m16r2Windows version: Wondows11 24h2*PLUS* a screenshot of my audio devices, I used to have a intelliGo Audio Processing O

Volume Mute Light won´t change color

Before I follow your suggestions, a quick update: as the updating didn´t seem to work I stopped trying and just left it alone for awhile. About a half hour later I looked over and saw that the mute light was now blue. I tried the button but it and the volume buttons did not work at all. On the screen I was told that I needed to reboot, which I did and now the system has returned back to the way it was before: everything works except that the mute light does not change to blue as it should when the speakers are not muted. WTF?
