audio output through hdmi cable to projector/tv

[eustace1]

When I connect to either an lcd projector, or a tv, via an hdmi cable, I get no sound out put?  This problem existed from the beginning using the projector, but until recently, I did get audio on the dhmi connected tv?

Hi! @eustace1, Welcome to HP forums.

I understand you are unable to get audio output using HDMI connection.

Don't worry I'd like to help you out.

Did you make any software or hardware changes on your laptop?

Have you tried checking with a different HDMI cable?

As you mentioned you are unable to get audio output using an HDMI connection on your PC.

Please try few steps mentioned below.
 
Open the Device Manager in Windows 10.
Navigate to Sound, video, and game controllers.
Now connect your PC to TV using HDMI connection.
This will show some “HDMI Audio” related driver under the above section.
Now right-click that item and UNINSTALL it.
Now right-click Sound, video, and game controllers and select “Scan for hardware changes“.
This will install a typical driver which is something like this – “Device with HDMI AUDIO OUTPUT SUPPORT”.

Also, try the steps recommended below.

• Control Panel, Sound, Manage Audio Devices
• The Soundbox will pop up.
• On the playback tab, you should see two icons. One for your laptop speakers, one for the external monitor/TV.
• Double click on the Laptop speakers, then click "Set Default" button on the bottom.
• The Laptop Speakers will be "Checked".
• Select OK and exit.

Refer this article to further troubleshoot HDMI issues with your PC.

If the issue still persists try updating the drivers using HP support assistant.

Thesteps that you recommended worked as prescribed. Thankyouvery mush for your help, Sir. The Intel Display Audio driver must have been the problem
