    Can't Get sound on my TV when connected to my laptop with HDMI cable

    One more comment.... When I plugged the laptop into the other TV, the sound immediately came out of the TV without having to change any settings. Same with the tablet. And in the past, even on this Sony TV I didn't have to tinker with any settings. All I had to do is plug the HDMI cable in...

    You asked me about the settings on my Sony TV. I can't find much that can be manipulated. You pick your 'Input' which is HDMI. Then you pick speakers which are TV speakers. I used t have a theatre system with surround sound, but that no longer works, so 'TV speakers' is the only thing I can...

    Can't Get sound on my TV when connected to my laptop with HDMI cable

    This is what made me think the fault is with the Sony TV, but it works perfectly when I hook up my tablet to it. I have picture and sound on the TV. My conclusion is that all my equipment works, but I have a wrong setting somewhere between the HP laptop and the Sony TV

    Can't Get sound on my TV when connected to my laptop with HDMI cable

    I have my laptop (HP) connected to my Sony TV with an HDMI cable. It used to work perfectly. I still get the picture, but no sound. I tested the HDMI cable, and it's good. I tested the computer and hooked it up to my other (Samsung) TV with the same HDMI cable, and both picture and sound...
