  1. ok so i'm genuinely confused. picture on my TV is great, but sound comes out of the laptop speakers only.

    USB Audio Device Properties
    Device status:
    This device cannot start. (Code 10)
    
    {Operation Failed}
    The requested operation was unsuccessful.
    

    it started right after the AMD driver update... ive checked the volume mixer, default device, everything I know of, theres simply no HDMI output to choose... is there a component I need to install separately? my family is now watching with subtitles and judging me, sooo any help would be very welcome. I am comfortable reinstalling the driver if that is what it takes.

  3. sorry forgot to say device Manager doesnt show any HD audio device from AMD anymore, even with hidden devices shown.

  4. in Device Manager, check Sound, video and game controllers for teh GPUs HD audio device. also try View > Show hidden devices. if its there but disabled, enbale it. if its missing entirely, use Action > Scan for hardware changes. good luck man!

  5. oof many GPU installers let you choose components in Custom install, and teh HDMI/DisplayPort audio driver is one of them, rerun the AMD installer, choose Custom, and make sure the HD audio component is ticked. lmk how it goes

  6. ehh ive seen Express install skip HDMI audio only when the previous intsall had it unticked. A clean install is the surest way to reset that.
