I just bought an ASUS MS246H LCD monitor, and the specs states that it has integrated stereo speakers. However, I plug in my HDMI cable and there is no sound.There is a hole next to the HDMI plug, and it's apparently for earphones. Is this what it meant by integrated stereo speakers? I have to plug my speakers in?I thought integrated speakers meant that there should be sound coming out of the monitor itself.?
Plug in your HDMI cable to the laptop. Restart your computer and it should work fine. You will then see your HDMI cable listed as a connection in the Sound Devices menu (Control Panel --Hardware and Sound --Manage Audio Devices)
First try checking your hdmi settings on your computer to make sure it's set to output audio through the HDMI cable, to do that go into speakers on the taskbar, than go to mixer and check the output selection and change it to HDMI, if it still doesn't play sound through the monitor than it most likely doesn't support sound through HDMI and you'l have to use the 3.5mm jack.
