  1. Movie night, everyone's on the couch, i hit play on teh PC hooked up to the soudnbar and..... silence. Picture perfect, zero sound. The only thing i'd changed was installing NVIDIA GeForce Graphics Driver 398.82 earlier that day.

  3. hmmm on some setups the HDMI audio only appears when teh new 4K TV is teh active display at boot. test with only the new 4K TV connected once. fingers crossed 🤞

  5. ehh i've seen Express install skip HDMI audio only when the previous install had it unticked. A clean install is the surest way to reset that. idk maybe im wrong lol
