Hello,
Had the same problem. I contacted Hikvision support, distributor, did everything they say on the Internet. Nothing worked --> see my post for reference:
No audio in DS-2DE3A404IW-DE/W stream
- At the end I backed up the cam parameters to file.
- Reset all the parameters, except the IP parameters and user information, to the default settings.
- View attachment 131985
- Restore the parameters to camera and sound start working.
I found out the FW on my device is buggy as hell. I was able to recrreate the same "sound is gone" problem. It happened when I Enabled Lite storage in Storage management section. I did the 1,2,3 steps again and the sound was back again.
BR Matt,
