Only Directv app doesn't play sound

I have a Walmart brand Onn tv stick running android TV 14. I've been using this setup for years. The TV stick has the Directv app that I use to watch various channels. I took an update to the TV stick about 2 weeks ago and since that time, there is no sound when I watch any channel via the Directv app. At first I thought all sound was gone but when I use Netfix or Prime or any other streaming app, the sound works. Only the Directv app plays no sound. Any thoughts or help?

Have you tried deleting and reinstalling the DirecTV Stream app?

Yes, tried deleting the app and reinstalling. I also reset the TV stick to factory and had to reinstall the app. Tried a different monitor. Still the same - all apps except the Directv app has sound. Even tried a bluetooth speaker. All has sound except the one app.

@AJSolo can you share the model number of the Onn stick so our teams can investigate further.
