Speaker not working

[Mari92]

 The speaker on my Xperia L stops working all of a sudden. Even though my volume is maximum, when I watch videos on youtube or try to listen to music on speaker, it is extremely low and cannot be heard. The problem is rectified when I restart the phone though. What can I do about this?I bought my Xperia L last month and have encoutered this problem twice already!Please help!Thanks:)

An odd problem. Try clearing data of Media storage app: Settings--Apps--All--Media storage--Clear data. This will not delete your media files, but may delete all playlists in walkman, marked favourites, etc. So, if you need your playlists, first make a backup using Media Go. Reboot. Check if problem persists. If it persists, try clearing data of Walkman and Winamp apps at Settings--Apps--All. And this will delete all your preferences, playlists, etc. for both the apps. Reboot.

No, it wouldn't have deleted your media files. I have done this a couple of times and mine remained unharmed. Use a file manager to browse your storage and check for your media files. And I am sorry I didn't tell you before that ringtones will be reset. But, more importantly, does the speaker work now for music?

Just give some time for the walkman app, after you open it, to load all songs, it might take a few minutes. If this hadn't solved your problem, try resetting to factory settings or try a repair with Sony Update Service.

I even repaired my phone but no changes

The speaker is not working for Walkman and ringtones but working for notification....
Even I cannot listen any voice during call from my voice reciever above Sony Logo..
But as soon as I shift it to back speakers the voice is clear...

What the he'll is the problem.

The problem seems to need some expert assistance, better take it to a local Sony service centre.

That sounds strange. Do you experience the same problem if you boot your phone into safe mode?

If yes, I suggest that you perform a software repair on your unit via Update Service:

Download and install SUS, follow the instructions that appear.

I own an Xperia LT-30at and the same thing started to happen on my phone as well

I'm still using ANDROID 4.1.2...it seems that YouTube on my Android has been grabbing and holding the rear speaker audio hostage after trying to play a video (although headphones work fine). I noticed that the audio to my speaker wasn't working,

So I did some Googling only to walk knee deep into the usual hardware versus software finger pointing...not making much progress with the forums I decided to call it a night and get some reading done so I plugged my phone into the charger - at some point a Facebook notification (system sound) came in and revealed the speaker to be working again...relieved to have speaker phone working again, I clicked on a YouTube link and played a couple of seconds until the audio crapped out again...no rear speaker, no mp3 player, no speakerphone but I sorta think Flash on Android is the cause of this...

I did try the touch sounds setting and it did seem to bring the rear speaker sound back after turning it on and off a couple of times but I still think it's Flash audio that is the culprit here...

anyone else corroborate this?
