No audio at all in Adobe Premiere Elements 15

I'm new to video editing. I've been working on a few projects that include video clips and imported music tracks. All audio has worked just fine. Then today I open one of my projects and there is no sound. I checked all of my projects and none of them have sound anymore. I tried starting a new project and imported video and music tracks--no sound at all. I checked the settings to make sure that my computer speakers were the default and they are. The volume is not muted as far as I can tell. My computer plays audio just fine outside of Adobe. This just happened all of a sudden. When I closed the project last night everything played just fine, then I open it today and there is no sound. I never changed any audio settings. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

    Hi RaeaJade,

    I had the same issue and I just solved it.

    I went to settings in Premiere Elements and clicked Audio hardware. Default Input was on Microphone. I set those on 'No Input'. The default output is on 'speakers'.

    Now I have sound again.

    Good luck!

    Good suggestion, Wesley! In fact, it's what I suggested also in my first response.

    I tried this and there is still no audio. The file is from a GoPro Hero5 and the file is MP4. All audio settings on the PC seem to be correct, but still no audio during playback.

      I don't know enough about your system to be able to help.

      What are you settings if you go to the program's preferences (under the Edit menu on a PC) and view the Audio Hardware page?

      Sometimes these settings can be changed by things like plugging in a USB microphone or headset. In fact, if you've got a USB microphone plugged in, try unplugging it.

      Hi there. The audio hardware default settings are set to my laptop speakers. I don't have any microphone plugged in and never have.
