Hi Newbie Learn Android,
I have the same problem on my PC, if you still have issue then here is the solution that I have to resolve mine:
1/ for audio output, use a 3.5mm audio plug and insert it into audio out socket, say a headphone or something like that this will activate the onboard audio output.
2/ for audio input(microphone), also use a 3.5mm audio plug(can be a dummy one like audio extention cable) and insert it into the mic-in plug.

now recompile the project and it should work, or at least it works on mine.

Good luck.

I had the same and solved it by @Chris Nguyen's solution. But it is a silly thing forcing me to insert a speaker and mic. I may not want to use any of them.
