It would depend on the media player more than the hardware. I suggest you try "Media Player Classic" which is included with the "klite media codec pack" During setup select "2.0 stereo" for your audio.

SOURCE: Acer Aspire 5920G wont play dvd, it wont even recognise them!

If it recognises cd but not dvd it means the drive is faulty. There is 2 lasers one for cd and one for dvd. The dvd laser is faulty. It also means that it is not dirty lens because it reads cd's.

Does the laptop play CDs?
If so then when you start a DVD and before you play the movie, go into the audio setting and configure the speakers for laptop stereo speakers.
If you cannot hear music from the CD then check :-
1. The audio settings, volume not set to minimum and mute is not ticked (enabled)
2. Device manager - sound device is enabled and working, if not re-install the sound driver.

MY SAMSUNG MODEL HT-Z410. WILL PLAY DVD'S AND I CAN HEAR EVERYTHING IN THE BACKGROUND BUT I CANT HEAR PEOPLE TALKING

Try selecting different options for the DSP audio settings. Sometimes a simple 2 channel stereo with subwoofer gives the best dialogue intelligibility. I would avoid fancy reverb presets like auditoriums and churches etc. You probably want to find a nice balance between the dialog, the music and sound FX, and the bass (subwoofer) BEFORE YOU START MESSING WITH THE surround speaker FX. Also, you may find that you have to readjust all the settings for different videos. I finally just opted for the simplest, no-fuss approach. Usually the stereo with sub. For really good concert DVDs, you will probably want to use all the speaker configurations that 5.1, 6.1, and 7.1 support.

Sound and background music and noise is fine

This usually happens on home burnt DVD's

It is the format in which it was recorded that is at fault.
There is little you could do but re-encode the whole thing before you burn it.

Turn off or try the different surround options whilst it is playing.

If it does this with commecial DVD's then you may have set the surround setting by accident to somthing else.

I had a similar problem

Emerson dvd player - background sound lauder than dialogue

Greetings surfjax,

If you will allow me to make an assumption, you do not have a 5.1 surround system connected to your DVD player. This is a common experience with users of a standard TV or stereo receiver if a movie is being presented in 5.1.

In a surround sound system the center channel speaker provides almost all the vocal tracks while the side channels will provide music and some background noises. You'll still be able to hear the voices in your side speakers, but it will be muted and over powered by music or sound effects.

Some DVD players allow you to "Downmix" the surround signal to stereo. You might want to look around your sound setup on the DVD player or check your owners manual.

Hope this helps.
Jon
