Since the latest HDR windows 10 update my external speakers no longer work

If I click on sound devices they are no longer shown there either

Without sounding too first line, it might be worth removing and plugging them back in so windows can redetect something plugged into the jack. If not see if there's a driver / software update for your soundcard.

speakers are connected via optical so doesn't require drivers
