http://ubuntuforums.org – Hi, I am having some problems getting sound to work over the HDMI interface on my laptop. I have tried going to System/Preferences/Sound to try and change the settings to HDMI but there are no HDMI options to choose from. How do I find out if HDMI sound is supported by the nvidia drivers I am using? I had a look at this thread; http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.p...ght=hdmi+sound but am still lost. Video over HDMI works fine, I just have no idea about the sound settings. thanks, Brett. btw I have also had a look at gstreamer-properties but cannot find any options for HDMI sound. (Hardware)

Stories similar to [ubuntu] no sound with nvidia 9650mGT HDMI

I used one of the help guides for establishing hdmi sound here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2142636 and also installed pulseaudio volume control. I can see the hdmi sound which would come out of my tv speakers yet isn't. In PulseAudio, the sound bar pulses which shows sound activity. The picture is great. The sound is no longer sent out of the built in speakers. My TV is not muted.

I just spent hours to configure the sound to work with HDMI. My last problem is, when I start playing sound the TV screen goes on and off, like when you change the resolution. When I stop playing sound, 3-5 seconds after, the same thing happen. I feel like everytime I play/stop the sound, the HDMI connection needs to be resetted.

Ive got a strange problem here. I have a video card running with hdmi and it's plugged into my tv. The sound works fine when I first boot up. But when I turn the tv off and back on, the hdmi sound no longer works and is not an option in the sound menu. It won't work unless I reboot. Any ideas on keeping it on regardless of whether or not the tv gets turned off?

Hello all

wondering if anyone knows of a guide, thread or web page that will guide me through a diagnosis and repair or fix for nvidia hdmi sound.I figured I would ask first before I go through 5 pages of threads marked hdmi sound trying everything suggested.Thanks all.

I have an F17 machine with an Intel Ivy Bridge CPU w/embedded Intel HD4000 GPU.

When I plug my HDMI into a TV the video works great but I get no sound.

I installed the nvidia-current-updates driver, and then the sound through hdmi stopped so i am getting no sound for ubuntu 64 bit, i have gtx 560 graphics card asrock motherboard pro4 gtx560 graphics card connected mini hdmi to hdmi

Hi all,

First off, I'd like to say I checked high and low for any possible solutions, but alas, I found none.

I am currently unable to get sound out of my hdmi connected tv. I do get picture though. When I had 11.10, it came up in the sound settings and all I had to do was select it. Now when I connect it, HDMI is not even listed.

I'm using an acer 6920 with the nvidia geforce 9500m (512mb).

I'm on a Hp laptop and I've been running Ubuntu for several months without a single sound issue. After a regular update notice popped up, I updated the 20 or so things.

Now whenever the PC locks the screen from being idle too long I loose sound from my headphone jack (into my external speakers) and onboard speakers when I unplug the externals.
