1/ Ensure that your DreamScene video is running on your desktop

2/ Right Click on the Speaker icon in the notification are (next to the clock at the bottom of your screen)

3/ From the menu that appears, Click Open Volume Mixer

4/ In the Volume Mixer window you should see three options:

• Speakers.
• Windows Sound.
• Windows DreamScene (If you don't see the DreamScene option then DreamScene isn't running on your PC)

5/ At the Bottom of the DreamScene Volume slider you will see a Speaker icon with a small red circle with a bar across it (if the red circle is not showing then the the sound is already enabled), Click on this to enable sound

6/ Finally, adjust the Volume Slider to the desired level of sound, then Close the Volume Mixer window by Clicking the red X in the top right hand corner of the Mixer window

7/ You should now see your video playing and also hear the sound.
