No sound on uploaded video to Youtube.

Hi all, I am getting no where with this............I upload a video to my Youtube channel (recorded on my iPad direct to YT on their app) most weeks for work purposes (as I have been doing for the last 2 years) but the last one recorded fine visually but had no sound. I have had my iPad checked and there's nothing wrong with it, sound or otherwise. I haven't changed any of my settings on YT to affect anything.
I have deleted and reloaded the app a few times, rebooted everything, and it's still the same. I have so far got round it by recording on my laptop (not through the app) and then uploading, it works but the sound on my old laptop isn't great. I'd really appreciate some words of wisdom please. 
T.I.A.

    You've mentioned a lot of things but not whether you've tried deleting the video and re-uploading.

    Also, have you tried recording a short test video on the iPad and uploading it.
     
    These will help you narrow down where the fault is.

    Thanks, yes I have tried several test videos to no avail. Hadn't tried the 1st suggestion, but I've deleted it now!
  • Anyone else have any ideas at all?

    If you record the video on the iPad but transfer it to a phone/PC/laptop do you then get sound?

    What are your using to record the video? IPad camera or an app?

    How are you uploading the video fom the iPad ? An app or in Safari?

    Did YT flag it as copyright music?  I recorded a clip and uploaded it, what I didn't realise was the music in the background was super
    quiet yet YT picked it up and flagged it so I had silence instead.  I had to turn the volume up from 18 in the video to 87 to
    actually hear the music but their system still detected it.

    What are your using to record the video? IPad camera or an app? The ipad and the YouTube app, it uploads direct to my channel…….it has for the last 2.5 yrs!

    How are you uploading the video fom the iPad ? An app or in Safari? As above
    Hope that answers the questions.

    No, there’s no music, I’m just talking.

    I recorded video not through the youtube app, from the camera, on playback the sound was ok, on transferring to my phone the souns was ok. It has to be the youtube app??
