    As soon as i plug in the Index, the TV completely vanishes from the audio output list entirely. Not even "Not connected", it just disappears entirely. The video still works, but I can't output any audio to it at all. I didn't have this problem on Windows 7 before I upgraded a few weeks ago, and it makes having other people watching while someone plays VR really frustrating. Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this, and how to fix it?

    This is my audio device list before and after connecting the Index.

  2. No HDMI output from my laptop to my Samsung TV.


    Hi,
    So I have tried everything. I update the drivers for both my graphics cards and they are both the latest drivers.

    When I connect my TV to my laptop, the TV screen goes blank for a few seconds (normal) and then I get a searching for signals...and then a few minutes later....no signal.

    The laptop is a brand new Acer aspire v nitro. The TV is a much older Samsung one 40 inch LED. Model number: ua40d5003br

    I tried the usual Windows + p, etc...but like my computer just refuses to detect the display. Settings says no other display detected, and control panel display settings only shows one display. I factory reset the TV and everything....still nothing.
    I don't know how to use nvidia control panel to do this cos there is no display options I can see there and Intel HD graphics center doesn't detect the display either.

    Any suggestions? The cable is 100% working and so is the TV. I don't really have any other way of testing the HDMI port on my laptop as the tv is the only output monitor I have.

    Thanks in advance,
    Vishwas

    HDMI audio output to Sony TV

    Hi,

    One possible reason why your HDMI audio output was not working due to outdated drivers. To isolate your issue, kindly answer the following questions:

    • Have you made any recent changes prior to this issue?
    • Did you get any error messages when you tried to connect your computer to your TV?
    • Have you tried updating your HDMI audio driver?
    • What troubleshooting steps have you done so far?

    We're looking forward to your response.

    My TV is not detected when I connect to my laptop through Thunderbolt/HDMI cable

    I have a laptop with Thunderbolt(Mini Display Port) and ofcourse TV has HDMI port. Si I bought a Thunderbolt to HDMI cable and connected the devices but TV is just not showing up when I press Detect.

    Now, this laptop is not having any issues when I connect it with my external monitor, its just the TV which is not being detected.


    All I see is No Signal when I turn on the TV and choose the port from laptop

    Any suggestions?
