Can this thing not output sound it receives through HDMI?

If you connect a bluray player or video game or even a DVD player, the sound will play out of the built in tv speakers. There isn't an earphone jack on the back of the tv that would allow you to add additional powered speakers. You could however, attach powered speakers to the rca audio out plugs on the player to powered speakers and have additional audio available if wanted. The hdmi does supply audio and video to this tv and if there is sound on the media being played, it will provide sound on this tv.

The card does support sound via the hdmi cable. I had to open my playback devices and set the default to 50 PCT3D-OE-3 NVIDIA HIGH DEFINITION AUDIO DEFAULT DEVICE

Hi Eddie.I use a Western Digital Live TV and a Set Top Box. Both connect via HDMI, and both sources have their audio duplicated and sent through the analogue headphone/speaker port. I connect PC speakers to that port and it works great.Greg

Yes. You have to enable HDMI digital audio in NVIDIA Control Panel and change your target output device. I run music from my computer directly to my A/V Receiver this way.

Honestly, buy a new receiver. You need this, and then you can continue using the speakers you have. Trying to do this any other way is not a good idea, and will end up costing you the same amount of money and continued frustrations on lack of HDMI inputs and outputs.

I tried it and still got sound from speakers. It doesn't say headphones, rather it says output.

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

I had the same experience, but found the audio worked when using the HDMI output.

Check your settings and make sure audio output is set to displayport or HDMI instead of computer speakers.

PamRosa, We haven't tested that, so it's difficult to give a definitive answer. You can try by using an RCA cable to your receiver from the "audio out" port while it's connected. If not, however, we can't offer support on how to make that happen. HDMI usually carries both the audio and video through the same cable, and the design may not offer an option. --Mr. S

Check the tv menu for audio options. Maybe there is an option to send the sound to external speakers that may need to select or enable. Make sure you are connecting the wires to the audio out jack and not accidentally into some other jacks.

I used hdmi. Get the latest hdmi because some old hdmi won't output the sound.

HDMI does carry sound, but it depends on your software.On Linux, you'd have to check if the drivers you use for the card work with ALSA (if not, no sound). You may have to change or duplicate the sound output to hear over HDMI. Most video cards expose audio through a PCI interface, so you may see something an audio device listed in lspci.On Windows, you may need to go into your sound settings and change the default sound output to use HDMI Audio (if you even have that option). The sound options should show the available outputs and inputs.

i connected all of my hdmi devices to the sound bar including the TV which is plugged in to hdmi 1; i also used the digital audio out (optical) connex. All sound/video feeds through just fine. I just switch the input to hdmi port (hdmi 1 for tv, hdmi 2 for dvd/blu ray, hdmi 3 for roku).

No DVI isnt capable of handling sound, but there is an HDMI input so im not sure why youd use that cable.

Did you change the audio settings to HDMI OUT? You will need to in order for the audio to go to HDMI.

You can try to connect it to your sound card with compatible ends or connect directly to speakers with speaker wire. I just use the RCA jack for my surround sound system.
