Windows 10: I want to set my TV's speakers for any app on the TV automatically

I have a monitor and a long HDMI cable connecting my TV to my computer. What I want is a way to automatically use my TV's speakers when I move a YT video or a movie onto the TV without having to manually change my audio output device.

Sound comes out of laptop instead of TV when viewing a DVD

Sorry everyone, I forgot to come back to say I solved the issue! I did it like this:

• Right-click speaker icon in the tray
• Click on "Sounds"
• Go go to the "Playback" tab"

There are two speaker devices listed:

1. Digital Output (with a TV icon)
2. Speaker/HP (my laptop speakers)

I disabled Speaker/HP, and then Digital Output automatically took over, which made the sound come out of the TV.

Problem solved!
Thanks for the suggestions and advice that helped steer me in that direction. *Thumbs
