No sound through HDMI cable

[livvy0421]

I'm trying to hook my HP laptop up to the tv to use netflix. Had a HDMI cable and would get picture when it wanted to but no audio. Went out and bought another HDMI cable. Now I get crystal clear picture, but still no audio. Wondering if there is a setting that I need to change or if my laptop isn't set up for this kind of hook up. I also noticed that in my sound menu, that it is not detecting that my HDMI cable is hooked up. But I'm still getting the picture on the tv screen.

have you tried to switch your sound settings to HDMI before starting IE?
