No sound via HDMI to ASUS Monitor [SOLVED]
I've enjoyed a lot of the useful information from you all on this forum. My problem is that when I connect my Acer Aspire 5810T Laptop to my Asus Monitor MT276 via HDMI, I get video on my Asus but no sound through its speakers. I'm getting sound through my laptop though.
I'm unable to see the HDMI sound icon when I use "Manage Audio Devices" even though I checked to show disabled and disconnected devices. I think it may be because of my graphics or sound card (which I've tried updating via device manager but still no luck).
My system specs are to the right and if you require any other information let me know. Any suggestions on how I can get sound through the monitor's speakers?
[SOLVED]
I now get sound and video via HDMI through my Asus monitor. The way I got it to work was by updated my chipset driver to an older version.
Steps I took:
1) Go to Device Manager
2) Open Display Adapters and right click and select Update Driver Software
3) Select Browse my computer for driver software
4) Select Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer
5) I then was given a list of drivers and selected the oldest version (2/26/09)
I restarted my computer and plugged in the HDMI and the HDMI icon magically showed up when I went into Playback Devices.
I have updated the OP to show my solution. Thank you all for your help. You guys have a very good community here.
