No sound from TV when using HDMI from HP Envy Ultrabook4 despite downloading drivers

Problem: When using an HDMI cord from my HP Envy Touchsmart Ultrabook 4 (4-1105dx)to connect to my TV to view movies, the video appears on my TV screen, but there is NO sound from the TV. Instead the sound comes from my lap top.
Troubleshooting: I have looked under Sounds in the Control Panel, but the only choice listed is Speakers & Headphones IDT High Definition (which is the default) and does not allow sound from the TV when using the HDMI. I have also tried to download Driver and Audio Graphics, but wasn't sure which one & the ones which were downloaded have not solved the problem.
Can you assist me? Which is the correct Audio/Graphic Driver to download? Or is there another possible reason why I cannot hear sound from my TV when using the HDMI to connect to my lap top?

Supports multi-channel digital audio output on compatible devices
make sure your ipad is not muted
make sure you volume is not all the way down
make sure audio play out of the ipad when not connected to the hdmi adapter
if you did and it don't work then it's likely an issue with the connetor
or the tv or it's settings

No sound from optical output when using hdmi/dvi cable

I am trying to connect my apple tv2 to my B&O Beovision 7. I have used an HDMI to DVI cable which is working fine for the picture; but obviously DVI does not carry sound. I have therefore connected an optical cable to the digital optical output on the apple TV and put this through a converter to digital coax, which then goes in to the TV. I know the optical cable / converter set up works fine as I have tested it on my sky box and it works fine. But I get no sound from the apple TV - any ideas?

I hav exactly the same problem... Did you resolve this??

No sound from the TV when using HDMI cable, No sound from the TV when using HDMI cable

I recently purchased HDMI cable and adaptor, so that I can play downloads from my Macbook Air on my TV. There is only sound from the Macbook, not the TV - Do I need as separate cable for sound?

I've got the same issue: when I connect my Macbook Air (2011) to TV via HDMI cable there's no sound through the TV system, only from the Macbook Air. I used to use my older Macbook Pro with the same HDMI adapter and it worked just fine, but not with the Macbook Air it doesn't.
My software is up to date. I tried to select the TV as an output option in sound preferences, but it doesn't yield any results.
Rebooding multiple times doesn't help either.
Any suggestions on how to tackle this problem?
Thanks in advance.

My satellite L675D-S7015 all of a sudden, no sound from HDMI

I have a satellite L675D-S7015. It came with HDMI out, blu-ray player and all the bells and whistles. Up till a week ago the only thing I had to do to it was replace the screen after my friends kid broke it. But last week, I lost all sound to my receive. Now I have checked everything I can...made sure it was set to default....in the sound icon and by going through the realtek HD audio mgr. Made sure nothing was muted and all that good stuff. I then went into my device mgr...only to see that my ati HD HDMI driver had been replaced by some generic HDMI sound driver. I've uninstalled this several times and reinstalled the Realtek driver...only to have it replaced again. Is there a way to stop this? or what do i need to do to fix it? the generic HMDI driver will play sound, but I have no control over its settings it seems. And also...I thought that HDMI was more than just stereo? but the realtek HDMI settings, even when I have the box checked for it to allow true dolby d and dts, it doesnt give me any other optin in setup other than a stereo one? am I missing something?

I found this on the Microsoft websiite. (I am assuming you are running a Windows 7 machine)
Windows 7 auto update overwriting Realtek audio drivers on startup in Windows 7
And here is another thread in our forums stating the same issue.
Realtek Sound Drivers keep getting replaced by generic sound drives causing no sound
Here are a couple TOSHIBA KB articles for troubleshooting No Sound issues:

Mac mini 2014 won't do 5.1 surround sound from HDMI port

I can't seem to get my Mac mini 2014 to do 5.1 surround sound from the built-in HDMI port to my home theatre system. When I run the Audio MIDI Setup program the only option is 2ch-24bit (stereo). Now I didn't have this issue when I tested it with a Mac mini 2012 running 10.9.5. It allow me to select 6ch-24bit (5.1) and Encoded Digital Audio. I also don't have an issue with the Mac mini 2014 if I use a Belkin Mini DisplayPort to HDMI Adapter connected to one of the Thunderbolt 2 ports. It does 5.1 surround sound just fine. So is there something wrong with the built-in HDMI port on the Mac mini 2014 or OS X 10.10?

Dv-1015ea- no sound from TV via HDMI- solved

hi guys
i had a problem with sound from TV via HDMI from my DV5- 1015ea. i had gone through almost all the threads but the solution was pretty similar. here is how i solved it.
i have windows 7 ultimate 64 bit.
go to device manager and open Sound, video and game controllers
it should bring IDT HD audio CODEC (or appropriate driver/device name,depending on your machine) and
NIVIDIA HD audio (again dependent on your machine).
now right click on each one in turn and just select update driver.
after its done (dont restart your pc yet, even if it asks you to)
right click on the speaker icon/ audio icon on right side of your task bar
open playback devices
a new playback device should be there, called something along the lines "NVIDIA HDMI output" which should have a tv icon next to it
single click on it and select SET DEFAULT just under the icons in the window of playback devices.
now try playing something on PC and you should be able to watch and hear from your tv.
**this was done with hdmi connected to the TV and the tv should be displaying the same as your PC screen.

No Sound From TV when HDMI cable is connected from HP G60-230US laptop

Not able to get the sound from my tv to come through my surround sound speakers

I have a new Samsung 46" tv and a new yamaha receiver also a new Samsung blu-ray player. I currently have an HDMI cable going from my tv to my receiver and a short HDMI cable going to my Blu-ray player and the old style red and white rca cables from my tv to my receiver. The surround sound works great when playing the blu-ray but no luck when watching regular tv. I have tried to change the tv speakers to external speakers but all is silent when i do that. I have read on the other post of similiar problems and the solution seemed to be using an optical digital cable. I have also read on prior post that i should be able to accomplish this with just the HDMI cable. I do not have a cable box only a cable line coming into the house and straight to the tv. Do i even need the rca cables?

When i purchased the equipment from best buy i told them what all i was trying to accomplish and this is the exact way i was told to make the connections keep in mind i know nothing when it comes to electronics so i wrote the instructions from the salesrep word for word. Here is what I have. My tv is located on one side of the room and receiver and blu-ray on the other about 25' from each other. I have regular cable coming to the tv and I have an HDMI cable coming from HDMI (DVI- IN) on the tv to HDMI(OUT) on my RX-V367 receiver. the i have a short HDMI cable going from my receiver (HDMI/DVD) to my blu-ray (HDMI out). My RCA cables came into play when I told the rep. that I wanted my tv sound to come through my surround sound. He said they did not have a digital optical cable with a length of 25' to reach from tv to receiver so I would have to use RCA cables and to connect them from (audio component IN) on my tv to (AV OUT) on my tv. The input on my receiver when watching tv in on HDMI 1.

Mini Displayport to HDMI Adapter - Sound?

I have hooked up my mini by the Mini Displayport to HDMI adapter to my Philips FlatTV. Sound is only played by the internal mini speaker, not from TV.
According Apple Support the sound should be working on the TV when using the adapter. They reckon my adapter is broken.
I know that there is no sound from the Minidvi to HDMI adapter unless you use external audio cable, but with the Mini Displayport?
Has anyone actually managed to make this work?
Thanks!

As already pointed out in this thread, Apple currently do not support routing audio out via the Mini Displayport connector even though the Displayport specifications allow for this. Therefore a 'standard' Mini Displayport to HDMI adapter will not be able to provide audio since the Mac will not be sending it.
However many people have been disappointed with Apple's omission and as a result at least one manufacturer of adapters has developed a solution to workaround this.
If you look at http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?cid=104&cp_id=10428&cs_id=1042802&pid=5311&seq=1&format=2 you will see the 'standard' style Mini Displayport to HDMI adapter which due to Apple, does not currently provide audio. If you however look at this model http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?cid=104&cp_id=10428&cs_id=1042802&pid=6331&seq=1&format=2 then it gets round the problem by connecting to both the Mini Displayport on a Mac and the Mac's Mini TOS-Link digital output and then 'merges' them together before sending them out via a single HDMI cable. This would therefore provide audio to your TV.

MacBook Pro 13" mid 2010 model (7.1): Mini Displayport to HDMI , no Sound

I bought my MacBook Pro on October 2010.
Also, in the SystemProfiler I can see that the "Audio Built-in" has HDMI in the list. And my macBook Version is 7.1 and am having OSX 10.6.7
I recently bought Sony Bravia KDL-40EX720 LED HDTV. And tried connecting the Display using a Mini-DisplayPort to HDMI. The Video works fine but cant get audio working. Also, the SystemPreference->Sound->Output has only Internal Audio in there.
Today I even tried with my office LCD HDTV from Samsung and Toshiba. Got the same result .. no Sound.
Where as my Father's MacBook Pro 13" which he got a couple of months earlier than mine got both Video/Audio working on his Panasonic Plasma TV. He is also using the same MiniDisplayPort to HDMI adapter I am using. But as I live some thousands miles away from home i can't check by connecting the Panasonic with my MacBookPro.
I have been looking out the forums and post all over the internet for any solution or relief but none so far. I still haven't had a clue if its the TV or the MacBook thats having this audio via HDMI issue.
Any, suggestion will be highly appreciated.
Regards,
Sapam

I have the same MBP Version 7.1 that you have and it also states in the System Profiler HDMI Display port
Output: Connection : Display. Now what that means, im not sure.
But i have also connected an HDMI cable via an adapter made by iWires Tech Link purchased at the Apple store and have the same problem as you, only video with no sound from the TV.
I've looked at the settings that eww has suggested in System Preferences > Sound > Output tab and their is no options available for HDMI out, or Display Audio or anything else for that matter, except built in speakers, and Audio port for sound output.
Which lead me to use the Audio port to send the sound out via an amp and speaker system independent to the TV.
Thats why i researched for the other adapters which send out the sound and the audio through the same adapter.

No sound from MacBook headphone jack until the cable is plugged in and -out

Hey there! If I connect speakers (iPod Hi-Fi) to my shut down MacBook and then start the MacBook, there's no sound neither form the MacBook nor from the speakers.
If I plug out the cable the sound comes from the MacBook as usual, if I plug it in again the Hi-Fi works regularly. How come?

Hi,
The HDMI sound may disable the other sound therefore you need to disable HDMI sound (remember put back if you wish to use it). Please check this video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LlYXiTK05nM
For example, in my machine I can just disable HDMI sound from this area:

Getting sound from macbook to work on HDTV

Hi, I'm having problems getting sound from my macbook aluminum 13" to my tv. The tv is a Samsung R8 Series 37" LE37R87BD HD. i got picture up by running a dvi to hdmi to the tv. i have no problem with picture but i can't get any sound. I tried 3.5mm jack from macbook to tv 3.5mm jack. got no sound. so bought a 3.5mm Jack to 2 x RCA and still got no sound. i even ran the the jack through my home cinema system and to no luck.
is anyone else having this problem and is there a solution?

Forgive what may be a dumb question on my part, but you are using the correct audio jack on your MacBook? The output would be the one closest to the security slot, farthest from the display/USB ports of the two 3.5mm/optical jacks. Also check the Output tab of the Sound system preferences to make sure that the Headphones/Line output is selected. It will probably be the only output shown, but double-check just to make sure.
Note that not all TVs will work with an auxiliary audio input when the video input is set to HDMI. Check your TV's documentation to see if it can split the video and audio input to different sources. That wouldn't, of course, explain why your audio amplifier isn't getting signal either.

TS3789 NO Sound from the Apple TV unit.

I have no sound at all. Just used it 30 minutes ago and it worked fine while using Netflix. Also tried restarting unit, but still no sound. Used AirPlay with ipad2, and get pictures but no sound. Get sound from tv using digital antenna and DVD player. is this a faulty unit?

FINALLY CRACKED THE CODE.....
After many days and days of trouble shooting and contact to Apple Phone Support (who wasn't able to help me out).... I finally managed to google the following result from an apple support link:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2090
In my case the problem seemed to be that If the HDMI cable accidently is being removed (or pulled out) while both the TV and the Apple TV is powered on, the Apple TV might stop playing audio which it did in my case.
The following worked for me. disconnect the TV and the Apple TV from the power source (simple power off will not work). Wait for 10 seconds... Then first conntect the TV back to the power source... wait 10 seconds and then connect the Apple TV back to the power source. VOILA!!!
Cheers, Mike

Quantum TV, no sound from sound bar

I have a harmon kardon SB16 sound bar, connected via fiber to my Sony W850B TV. I just got the new 6 show dvr, connected to the tv via hdmi. My Roku and BluRay play sound just fine, but the Verizon box gives me nothing. All cables are known working. I've swapped all cables (known working to the Verizon box and vice versa) and nothing changes. The things that work still work, and the Verizon box does not.
Any help?
Thanks!

I am having the same problem with my new Media Server DVR unit. My DR is connected to the TV with HDMI and the TV is connected to the soundbar with an Optical cable. My DVD player is also connected to the TV by HDMI.
I get sound from the soundbar from the DVD player but not from the new Media Server DVR. (FYI - My old verizon DVR box works with the soundbar using the same connections).
Verizon told me to use the same suggestion as above by holding the 'D' or 'B' key on the remote to access the DVR menu. I set the HDMI output as directed and still no sound from the Samsung soundbar.
Any other Ideas?
