"It Disappears"

Some more depth please?

When you shut down a pc generally the sound does go off.

Or if you mean when he shuts the lid of the laptop? that is normal also as most laptops go into hibernation.

Without further more detailed information, as asked we cannot help more?

Have a look in device manager. Delete all the audio connection stuff, both active, stuff with yellow "?" icons, and red "x" icons. Reboot the PC, and follow the prompts for found new hardware.
