Hey!

I have a problem with my laptop.

For example, I'm listening to a song and if I lift/tilt my laptop I can hear a crackling sound and the sound stops working. If I put my computer on sleep mode and then wake it up again, the sound works again.

Do you have any idea what the problem might be?
 


I have checked and everything seemed to be in place.
