I am treying to connect my Pavilion x360 to a TV using an HDMI cable. I get the picture fine but no sound. There is no option to select HDMI output in the Beats Audio Control Panel or under the audio icon. What do I need to do to get Sound via HDMI?

Since I had a similiar issue, I tried this procedure. Unfortunately, when I got to Step 3 "Press the Set Default button," I found that there is no Set Default button.
I bought the Pavilion a little over a year ago for the purpose of connecting it to my flatscreen with an HDMI cable. It has worked beautifully until a week ago when the sound, for some reason, syopped going to the tv and now comes only from the computer. I have played movies thru Amazon Unbox, VLC Media Player and Windows media player with no problems at all, until last week.
I also cannot find any HDMI reference when I use the Search function. This is curious because the video still works fine. There is no HDMI icon.
Can you suggest anything?

set default
- Reinsert the HDMI cable into the HDMI port on the computer.
- After approximately 10 seconds, switch the audio source in the Control Panel.
- Click the Start button, type sound in the Search field, and select Sound from the list.
- On the Playback tab, select the HDMI audio device, click Set Default, and then click OK.

Hi, I am taking over this thread from @SDJL as she is unavailable this week.
Ok, as it was previously working on this computer, let's see if we can find what may have changed. Was there any new software installed or possibly, system updates or new drivers?
Have you noticed any other system problem such as general speed issues?
I think a good thing to try, is to roll back using a system restore. I am unsure of which operating system you are running, as it is not specified in your post, so here are instructions for both Windows 7 and 8.
Using Microsoft System Restore (Windows 7)
Using Microsoft System Restore (Windows 😎
If that does not help with the audio, then next thing I would suggest is a check for malicious software, viruses and such, just to be safe.
Let me know if there is any change.

I am running Windows 7
I finally gave up fooling with the problem and did a full system restore. It worked! Putting the system back to factory specs solved the problem Just to check, I found that, although I don't have an HDMI icon, the Samsung icon was checked as default but there was an additional mark on the headphone icon. It wasn't a green checkmark, but looked like an old telephone handset. I've never seen this mark before.
As it stands now, I have downloaded VLC media player and can play all my movies on the big screen except those that require Unbox. Apparantly, I lost Unbox when I did the restore and now, my AVG secrity software won't let me download and of the "free" copies that seem to be available.
I certainly appreciate your efforts on this matter. And BTW, as soon as I determines that the problem was solved, I set a restore point BEFOR and upgrades from hp or especially Microsoft. It's possible that a MS upgrade caused the problem in the first place.
Thanks again.
