Windows 10: Every time I connect a HDMI to my tv I need to restart my windows audio to make the sound work.

When I connect my laptop to my TV I need to restart my Windows audio in the service app to get the sound out of my TV. When I first try to connect it the sound will only come from my laptop speakers. My TV speakers do not show up in the sound tab until After the restart.

No sound when connecting PC to TV with HDMI

Connecting an IVIEW PC to Vizio TV using HDMI cable, video works, but no sound. I right click on speaker and select playback devices, the only speakers listed are the PC speakers, Intel SST Audio Device (WDM). Tried using IE and Chrome. Connected same
PC and cable to Samsung TV, no problems.

 

No sound from TV with HDMI cable

Hello everyone,

I've built a desktop recently and everything is working properly until I connect it to my TV. Basically, I have no sound, even though the TV is properly detected by Windows. I have no problems whatsoever when my desktop is connected to my Lenovo high refresh monitor. So, below is how the volume shows up.





I've tried multiple things with no success:

• Updated my graphics drivers
• Tried different HDMI ports (from motherboard and gpu)
• Tried with HDMI cable from TV
• Tried with HDMI that came with my monitor
• Tried Windows troubleshooting
• Tried updating Realtek drivers directly on Device Manager (Windows said I already had the latest drivers)

Below you have an image that the TV is correctly detected and selected:





On Device Manager everything looks okay:





When I tried to see/edit the TV's sound properties basically I have nothing to change, and it says: "that the device was removed" and "no audio device is installed":







On "speakers configuration" on the image below it says "Unknown", which is weird:





Windows troubleshooting fails with two errors: "Volume is too low" and "audio services are not responding"





I have no more ideas, so I appreciate all the help you can give me.

Thank you in advance

 

Updated to Version 1803, HDMI audio on TV

I'm sorry Mike, I don't really understand what you're suggesting to do here.

Also, an update, tried restarting with the HDMI connected and it had the red x near the sound tray icon and no sound, troubleshooting came up with this:





I tried each of these options in sequence, each asking me to restart my computer and none of them doing anything after I did.

After those, I ran the IDT installer thing again and restarting after that put me back into my starting situation (laptop speakers work but doesn't pick up TV speakers), restarting again didn't do anything further.
