Hello,
When I hit the keyboard keys in Kontakt 7 and 8, the meters in the upper right corner show audio is playing, but I don't hear any audio. I've tried uninstalling both versions multiple times, played around with the options, but nothing seems to work. I'm just trying to try out some instruments in the standalone free Kontakt right now.
For context, I'm on a Windows 11 with a Samsung TV as my monitor. So all audio goes from my PC, through an HDMI, and out of my TV's speakers when I'm not using headphones. I can also show you what I have in Kontakt options regarding MIDI Outputs and Audio Drivers and Devices. Please let me know if you need any more info from me.
