I want to play PC games on my bedroom TV thats much bigger. I connected a displayport to HDMI to my tv and made it duplicate screens. That works perfect, but I have no sound out the TV, only the PC speakers.

I have both volumes enabled, but can only get sound from either one if I have either Samsung TV or Speakers enabled as the default device.

Kinja'd!!! Kinja'd!!!

Is there a way to have them both default sound device so I can get sound? Or do I need to have a better way of getting audio to the TV? Or I’m doing something wrong (most likely).

My PC speakers are plugged into the motherboard by the audio out (green).

The audio / video to the TV is displayport to HDMI as I only have 1 HDMI on my gpu and I use it for the monitor.

If Oppo can’t help, I’ll crawl to some PC nerd site :)

UPDATE:

Nick solved the issue!

I had this issue before. I disabled the sound driver, restarted and re enabled. That solved  the problem for me.

The good old “turn it off and turn back on” trick strikes again

Yep, that fixed my problem ! All I needed to do was click listen to device.
