  1. Im genuinely confused. Picture on my monitor with speakers is great, but sound comes out of the laptop speakers only.

    it started right after the NVIDIA driver update. ive checked teh volume mixer, default dveice, 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, so any help would be very welcome 😭 i am comfortable reinstalling the driver if that is what it takes.

  2. Did you use Express or Custom install for the driver? ??

  4. Device Manager doesn't show any HD audio device from NVIDIA anymore, even with hidden devices shown.

  6. yeahhh check the projectors input settings. some TVs and receivers renegotiate audio formats after a driver change. power-cycling the projector with teh PC on, or changing the TVs HDMI audio mode to PCM, can bring the endpoint back.

  7. been there man in Device Manager, check Sound, video and game controllers for the GPUs HD audio device lmao Also try View > Show hidden devices. If its there but disabled, enable it. If its missing entirely, use Action > Scan for hardware changes.

  8. i've seen Express insatll skip HDMI audio only when teh previous install had it unticked. A clean install is the surset way to reset that.
