A direct competitor to HDMI, Display Port has become more used in high-end equipment.
That is why HDMI is now the most popular port for Video, as well as audio.
Very few people use HDMI audio as well.
HDMI audio is only needed in some cases:
Thats about all the times you need sound over HDMI.
And, of course, you will be frustrated by the lack of sound.
I am telling you why there might be no sound on HDMI.
So there are two ways to restore sound in such a case.
The computer may be outputting audio to the headphones rather than to HDMI.
In that case, fixing the problem should be easy for you.
The default setting for audio output is set auto.
In this case, the computer must determine where to output the sound.
But if you have many audio devices connected, determining the correct output may need to be corrected.
These are the situations I have encountered with PCs and other devices receiving audio via HDMI.
If you have encountered other situations, kindly share them with our readers.
