I also use the same laptop and the top bar you mentioned is holds film type buttons like play/stop/eject/fastforwd etc. the similar situations happen in my laptop. I’ve been running my pavilion dv8 for about 2 hrs with processing load at about 50% CPU. I will do the same process but it can’t work in my situations. To disable the Bass & Trebble touch buttons, was helpful in my case. I use the process that works to disable this buttons. Then you can also try this way out and make sure that this helps on your case or not.

For more information you need to contact the official site expert. Then try to get a more knowledge about this issue. Manufacture of this laptop also work to provide you the best guidance about this issue. The manual of this laptop also work to fix your trouble. This is in my opinion our best shot until some other solution comes our way.
