    Hi there, thanks for reaching out! Could you share your AE and OS versions? Does this happen with every audio file or just a specific one?

    When the sound stops, does audio still work in other apps? Also, does restarting just After Effects bring it back, or do you need to restart the computer?

    Let us know whether you’re using built-in speakers, headphones, or an external audio device.


    Thanks,
    Nishu

    This problems comes after I put the computer on sleep mode & awake it. Restarting just After Effects bring sound back. I did not try with every audio file. Audio file plays even after sound stops.
