    Sound Problems with HDMI and DisplayPort


    Dear Windows Community,


    I have encountered a strange problem: A few days ago I built a new PC with Windows 10 which is now connected to three displays 2x DisplayPort and 1x HDMI. One of these displays has speakers connected via DisplayPort, another doesn't have internal speakers but is connected via audio cable to a Surround Sound system display connected via HDMI. Furthermore, I have a headset connected via USB.


    Now, all of these three audio outputs worked with my last PC but now I only get sound output with my headset, even the test sounds don't seem to be transmitted to the displays. I already tried the windows troubleshooting, tried reinstalling the drivers, even reinstalled Windows, but none of that solved the problem. At the moment, I have absolutely no clue what else I could try. Hopefully, someone is able to help me.

    :)

    Hdmi sound not working

    Hi Peter,

    One possible reason why the HDMI sound does not work is due to the conflicts with the playback settings. For us to help you make the HDMI sound to work, we suggest that you answer the following questions for further research:

    • Have you made any recent changes to your computer?
    • What is the current build and version of your Windows 10?
    • Have you tried to download and install the most updated sound and display driver of your computer?

    Meanwhile, we suggest that you perform the steps on this
    article
    as our initial troubleshooting and see if there will be any changes on the HDMI sound.

    We'll be waiting for your response.

    Displayport/HDMI Adapter

    HI everyone!

    I have a Thinkpad T420 and recently i bought a Displayport-HDMI Adapter for it so i can i connect it to my TV.

    But it turns out that although the video is connected and clear the audio still plays on laptop instead of TV. And also that the TV shows ''DVI'' connected instead of HDMI which i assume is the problem.

    Please do suggest any solution as quickly as possible.

    Thanks in advance.

    HDMI connection from Surface 3 does not give sound - only pictures

    We would like to know more information about this concern. Please answer the following questions so we can better assist you:

    • Is this the first time you connect Surface 3 on your TV using "Mini DisplayPort to HDMI 2.0 Adapter"?
    • Have you performed any troubleshooting steps to fix the issue?

    For now, we suggest that you run Sound troubleshooter to check and possibly automatically repair if there are any issues playing sound.
