@Dashrender That's weird...is it running W8.1
Yes
I really should have speakers on my work PC...I haven't had sound since since 2011 on my W7 PC. I mean I have earbuds connected for occasional music or webinar. I am usually surprised at the noises Windows makes when onsite with a clients PC.
-
That's odd. I have speakers on and I don't think that my Windows makes any sounds.

I'm seeing a weird problem like that right this second..
all of my normal sounds are coming out of my plugged in speakers, but for whatever reason, the webinar I'm watching is coming out of the internal HP speaker (hard to hear).
If it's using Webex or GoTo Meeting, it could be a presentation setting, like something you'd set in Skype.
-
Yeah I looked through those presentation settings, so far no changes.
-
Ok, I just thought of something really obvious. Enable the device for the DVI link, and turn up the volume on the monitor. Do you get sound?

That's the only thing that makes sense. Really weird...

Yes. That was for you. We need to establish if in the process of killing sound from the speakers if the sound even works from the DVI to HDMI in the first place.

No sound at all when DVI to HDMI was connected.

The sound would have been routing through the monitor. Was the volume up on the monitor?

Yes the volume was up. The sound works though the monitor speakers if connected via 3.5mm jack and VGA cord.

I was more looking to see if it worked with the adapter itself. I wonder if there is an issue with the adapter.
-
ok...adapter = DVI to HDMI cord Asus provided with either the monitor or PC. Which was previously attached and no sound would come out when used with the 3.5mm sound cord.

However, just to confirm, if you use the VGA, you get sound from your speakers, right? Onboard audio or separate sound card? I'm guessing onboard...
-
@thanksaj onboard, which is what we expected...onboard sound with 3.5mm cable and DVI-HDMI cable for video
