Audio Problems after update

After a recent update, a red x appeared next to the speaker icon in the
system tray. When I hover over the icon, it says: NO AUDIO OUTPUT DEVICE IS
INSTALLED. The device manager recognizes the output device and indicates
that the driver is up to date. HELP!!! I have no sound!
