Audio to hdmi after W 8.1 update

After fixing audio in windows on my laptop with your solution (thanks so much!)....I still had no audio to hdmi cable and tv display. Playback devices showed only Speakers/HP in listing. I tried adding a second display device to no avail. At one point I had Speakers/HP highlighted and showing as default, when i inadvertently right clicked on it and a menu popped up.
I t had an option to show all disabled devices , so i clicked it and Ouila! My samsung tv showed on the list as disabled. I enabled it and it set as default. Tested fine! Now my question is: Can laptop audio operate independently and at the same time as the second display audio? Just hoping my mom and I can each have our cake and eat it too.
Thanks again for your help.

IDT High Definition (HD) Audio Driver problem after windows 8.1 update 1.

Hello. I have HP Probook 4730s. After I installed Windows 8.1 update 1 the sound driver stopped working properly. When I want to play some music, video or even system sounds, sound appears after 1-2 minutes. At that time HDD usage is 100% cause of windows audio device graph isolation. I’ve installed that IDT High Definition (HD) Audio Driver from HP’s driver support site, but that’s not working. As I see in device manager driver’s release date is 24.10.2012. I think, it’s too old for Windows 8.1. Can you help me? Is there any other newer version of that sound driver? Also I’m sending two pictures where are HDD usage and driver release date.

Core Audio Components Missing After Clean Install and Update to 10.3.9?

I did a clean install of 10.3.x onto my hard disk and then updated to 10.3.9 through Software Update.
Before this install I'd been running 10.3.9 (my disk crashed -- or so I thought -- hence the re-install of all above). I'd been running a music recording program and taking advantage of Apple's Core Audio AU components (e.g. AUDelay, etc), which should be in /Library/Audio/Plug-ins/Components/ or something like that. Now they are missing entirely.
How do I get them back? Where are they to find?
Thanks!

It was a problem with the 3rd party software -- I hadn't run the installation update to interface with the AU Components -- after the reinstall. Thanks.

Cannot output 5.1 audio on HDMI after installing Windows 7

Hi All,
I have Pavilion dv7 1270us, which came with Windows Vista x64. I've managed to watch DVD Movies and Blu ray discs through the HDMI-output, having multichannel audio as well (5.1)
I thought that it was time for a Windows upgrade. This week I've purchased a copy of Windows 7 Professional, formatted my harddrive and installed my new Windows. After that I browsed HP's driver page to download my missing drivers.
Everything looks good now, except the fact that I cannot output multichannel audio to my amplifier now.
Firstly, I thought that this could be a codec issue, but it isn't. This is what I've found in my Sound settings - Windows says that my HDMI supports only 2 channels:
Am I missing something? A driver maybe or a setting? I looked at all possible settings and I am almost sure that the problem isn't there.
Please help!
P.S. I forgot one more thing. When my laptop was running on Vista, it was "smarth enough" to automatically choose the HDMI sound output for default sound device when I connect my HDMI cable, and the opposite - select "speakers" on disconnect. Now it does not.

As stolen from someone on another forum, "Basic windows sound will always be 2 channel with HDMI. It is only when a DD/DTS/LPCM signal is bypassed to the receiver that you get 5.1 or greater." Basically, set your HDMI as your Default Device, restart the computer, and test to see what happens.
Assuming this does not solve your problem, looking up your driver page shows that your current set of drivers are out of date. You can go here to download the newest set available from HP:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-75858-1&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&...
Good luck!
Though I am an HP employee, I am not here as a representative for them. I am here of my own accord to help those requesting it.
Please demonstrate any appreciation for help with a kudos!

All AAC Audio Files Lower After 6.0.2 Update

Just checking to see if anyone has had this problem before. I did the update two days ago (6.0.2) and noticed that my AirPort Express output was noticeably lower afterwards. I checked through my iTunes Library, "Get Info", and discovered in "Summary" that all of my AAC files had a volume reduction of about -10 decibels. For example, where a file had been -5 decibels for the purpose of 'Soundcheck', that file was now -15 dbs. I've discovered that I can solve the volume problem by unchecking "Soundcheck" in the Preferences --> Playback menus, but, in doing so, I've lost normalization of playback. Is there any way to control this feature across the board? Can I expect, with the next update, to have the volume decrease again? Any thoughts on this problem? Thanks.

It's good to see that I am not the only person having this problem. A fairly detailed database of the problem is in this thread:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=1619465&#1619465
I've been trying different things. I noticed that Apple Lossless gives a nice sound, but ***** up space. I have also noticed that many people have talked about the combination of MP3 and AAC in their libraries. It seems that the MP3 files play louder, and sure enough, the decibels for the ten MP3 files that I had were signicantly louder -- in the +decibels range. I converted them to AAC and removed the MP3 versions. I unchecked Soundcheck, played a few songs, and then checked Soundcheck. The sound seems to have gone up.

No sound / audio after 10.8.5 update

I just updated updated my iMac's OSX to 10.8.5 from the app store, it asked for a restart to complete the update, i clicked restart and it said it there was a error so the update wawsnt complete. After restart, there is no sound. I went to the system preferences, and there's no audio device. I downloaded the combo update from the apple site and it also failed, this is what i got after trying 4 times.
Same thing happened with my 10.8.3 update, since then, my wifi hasnt been working, i'm stuck with the cable now and i cant afford to backup everything and have a fresh OSX installation. Please help me with my sound and wifi, i really need the sound badly, i make music, Pleeease help

You really need to have at least 2 backups as you are risking losing all your data.
First check to see what version of 10.8 you have installed.  menu/About this Mac.
You can reinstall the OS from the Recovery Volume and it shouldn't affect your data files. Boot to the Recovery Volume (command - R on a restart) or hold down the option key during a restart and select Recovery Volume. Run Disk Utility Verify/Repair and Repair Permissions. Then reinstall the OS.

After ATV2 5.0 update Netflix audio is not in sync with video

Audio-interface unavailable after system update

I use a Behringer FCA202 firewire audio-interface.
After updating to 10.4.10 it is unavailable.
Profiler tells me it is there, but I can not see it in either application nor in the sound-settings.
Any help appreciated...

If you run /Utilities/Audio MIDI Setup does it appear there ?
Try unplugging all devices then reset Parameter RAM (hold apple/option/p/r keys at boot and don't let go until the third chime) then re-connect the Firewire cable.

Audio Input Noise After Recent Update

Something happened after the most recent update, I now have terrible line level hiss/noises when using the built-in input on my MacBook Pro. No trouble with my Firewire audio input though. The noise is really bad and records to track, making me believe that this is an input issue. I'm not positive that it's from the LE8 update (it could have been any recent update) but I've never had this problem before. It happens with both Logic Express and Garageband, rendering the audio input useless. Anyone else having this problem?

I have the same problem, and when I put my hand on the audio plug I feel something like static electricity.
I installed 10.4.x, no noise and no electricity
I don't know any other solution
My english is really really bad..

TS4113 Mac mini looses audio output through HDMI after being in 'sleep mode'

Since a month or so, my Mac mini is unable to send audio through HDMI output after being in 'sleep mode'.
Recently this was no problem, but now I cannot hear anything after unsleeping (unless I reboot fully).
Please help.

This is not just a Mac Mini problem. I've found comments from people with all kinds of Mac, with any kind of external sound device, who all have this same issue.
The common factor is Mountain Lion.
Apparently there is a new build (12F42) which is supposed to fix this.
http://www.gadgetguide4u.com/new-os-x-1085-build-number-12f42.html
Apple released it to their employees on the 25th Sept.
Here's hoping that build is available for the rest of us soon ...

No audio via HDMI (dv9700t CTO)

HP Pavilion dv9700t CTO Entertainment Notebook PC / Windows Vista 64bit
I have set the default audio device to the "Realtek Digital Output" device. I get no sound.
I upgraded the audio drivers from the HP support site. Still no sound via HDMI. (microphone quality was reduced to the point of being worthless)
I upgraded the drivers again with drivers from the Realtek website. Still no sound via HDMI. (I regained microphone functionality)
The reciever that I am trying to connect to indicates that there is no audio signal being sent to it from that source (my laptop). I have even tried connecting directly to the tv. That did not work either.
Its almost as if there was no connection between the audio hardware and the HDMI port.

I also have this problem my laptop is a Pavillion dv6000, when i first got my Sharp LCD every thing worked fine, i had both video & sound now my sound doesn't work. I cant point to exactly when my sound stopped working exactly, but i do let the computer do the regular updates with the HP update service. reading else where http://www.fixya.com/support/t1284552-hdmi_audio_not_appear_installed_hp it appears the problem may have occurred after one of the updates.

P7NGM-digital : audio over HDMI ?

Hello,
I read elsewhere that for this board, P7NGM-digital, audio over HDMI was not possible ?
Is it true ?
As it is not working for me.

Problem solved. Uninstalled all windows updates and display drivers. Reinstalled windows updates in groups of no more than 5 at a time, restarting after each group. Installed latest Intel display driver, restarted. Works like a charm now.

Mac Mini has Distorted audio over HDMI

My brand new mid-2010 Mac Mini has distorted audio over HDMI. Ideas? Tried multiple connections, devices, but the Mini's audio flattens and distorts high pitch sounds. Really distracting, makes movie watching impossible. Thinking about returning it.

Update: After a bunch of playing around, it appears that I do, in fact, have audio output. What is missing are the up and down volume chirps. I can do without that.
Now, anyone know how to fix the Logitec webcam's input volume...?
