Hi,
There is no sound during driving - no sound instructions on when to take a turn, etc.
I have the settings on for reading the navigation instructions aloud and yet there is no sound for direction.
The only sounds are for when I would reach the destination and that the route is calculated

Welcome to the site....
Check... Tap 4Dot (.... Menu)
Are any 'Sound Icons' slashed through ??? it’s really easy to turn off a Sound Icon when swiping through the Menus

After struggling to find the sound settings buried deep in Settings (not helpful!) I checked all the obvious things you mention - no go! Did a restart - no go!
Next stop, I fear, will be seeking Tt repair service...
Not sure if this will be a 'permanent fix' @LukaszG but here's what I found...
I activated Voice Control then asked for the 'next instruction' on the current route - Bingo! All audio instructions for the current route returned. I will see if they are still there next time I 'boot up'...

A Soft/Drum roll restart on the device is also useful to keep in mind for sorting out most minor niggles...
A Soft/Drum roll restart restarts the devices Operating System afresh
RESETTING YOUR NAVIGATION DEVICE

Charge the device for at least 2Hrs….
(Preferably using something like a Smartphone Charger using the Tomtom USB lead)
OR have the device plugged into a power supply while the device is restarting
Press and hold the on/off button until you hear a drum-roll sound then release the on/off button.
You won’t lose anything; it’s just like rebooting your PC
I use a Soft/drum-roll start after any upgrade large or small.

UPDATE #2:
The above action appears to have fixed the 'No audio instructions...' issue - for now at least!
