  1. The HDMI soundbar is recognized as a monitor, anyway to delete the display but keep the sound?


    I have a dual monitor using displayports, and a HDMI soundbar plugged in the gfx 1080.

    The soundbar is recognized as a third display and sometimes some window would pop onto the 3rd display and I have no way of accessing it.

    I tried disconnect the 3rd display but it also disable the sound.

    It's not a big deal, it's just really really annoying. Anyone have any solutions?

    Thanks a lot.

    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.

    The HDMI soundbar is recognized as a monitor, anyway to delete the display but keep the sound?

    SOundbar dont give sound with HDMI(SOLVED)

    I recently bought soundbar yamaha ysp 2500 as it supports 2.0 hdmi connection I bought cable 2.0a So i guess its still 2.0 and should be fine. I connected it with port ARC on soundbar with port ARC on TV(panasonic dx700b) But there is no sound I tried all possible variations with all HDMI ports on soundbar and on TV, but no sound. IT works perfectly with Optical, but I want it with HDMI as well to get all features. So what am I doing wrong?
    And btw I tried with other HDMI cables like 1.4 version still nothing.
    HDMI-CEC witch is called Viera-link on my TV is enabled as I read forums. SO what exactly ports do I need to connect on Sbar and on TV.
    Or the problem is somewhere else?
