Will this get the audio from the HDMI cable, or do you also have to connect audio cables?

Yes, the HDMI cable is in a sense the high definition, all-in-one cable from your incoming source.

Thanks for all the answers. Yes, with the VGA cable the sound works. If i use the HDMI i lose the sound.

Yes but I suggest using the Audio out to Computer Speakers or A sound sound system. Also Just incase you didn't know if you are using HDMI no worries Video and HDMI are in the same cable so just go from audio out and your set.

Yes, if connecting through HDMI you will get sound through that audio channel.

You'll have to get an audio cable. DVI doesn't carry audio signals, only video. HDMI is the connection type that is capable of carrying audio and video signals simultaneously.

If you want connect your TV to this system, you need Digital Audio out cable or HDMI cable

Why do you connect audio separately? HDMI should be sufficient to give you both video and audio if you hook it up through a common receiver. At least it works in my case. Try that. Bob.

Your HDMI cable may be older and not support audio. Try switching cables. Try switching output from the splitter.

The driver package includes the HDMI Audio drivers. You need to set that up in the Control Panel > Sound; as the default device.

Jennifer, HDMI audio is often treated as a separate sound source. You may have to turn the volume up in windows sound settings. Also, you probably already know this: you need a cable for the audio out plug on the back that connects to your speakers.

You can use the audio out while connected to hdmi with no issue. We had it set up to some bose computer speakers while the hdmi was connected for video to the tv in Afghanistan for a while...no problems.

This can be confusing, but I have tested this extensively. Yes, the HDMI audio will play out through the 3.5mm audio out port on the back to drive a pair of speakers or headphones. If you are on "HDMI 1" then the audio will play from that source. If you switch to "HDMI 2" then the audio will switch to that source. If you switch to D-SUB VGA then you need to have a 3.5mm cable running from your computer audio output/sound card to the 3.5mm input on the monitor. You can only get 1 source at a time and that source has to be the active screen on the monitor. In other words you cannot be looking at "HDMI 1" and getting audio from anything other than "HDMI 1." Also keep in mind that if you want to use the D-SUB audio setup then you "might" need to go into your audio settings in your operating system and make it the default or enable it. "HDMI 1" then

Yes, there is a setting in the setup that allows you to send audio to the HDMI-out port.

HDMI sends audio and video; you only need to provide separate audio if you are using a computer without native hdmi (ie a computer without an hdmi port where you need a hdmi adaptor to connect to the vidio card)e

yeah but its just a monitor so there will be no sound coming from it. you have to use an external source for the sound. oh for the hdmi you can just buy a $5 adapter from walmart or some other place. disregard my last comment!

Sorry but my english is very bad, whatever, I'll try to help you, what kind of cable are you use to output the audio? HDMI, Optical?

HDMI carries sound, audio cable not being switched. You need your audio to come from HDMI input.
