Vostro 220s HDMI audio output

Hello guys,

I got a vostro 220s slim desktop which I connected to plasma TV using HDMI port. OS: win 10 x64 pro. I upgraded this PC from win 7 to win 10.

The Audio is unable to pass through to the TV. Under speakers setting the TV audio output shows disabled. Audio to aux speakers and internal speakers works fine.

I tried updating audio drivers from dell website but still the audio output on the TV shows disabled. I need to use the audio from the TV only. Can someone help out ?

Thanks

I have seen that once and the workaround was to disable the built-in soundcard each time before you connect the HDMI cable and then the hdmi sound card was automatically selected and worked.
That workaround is stil in use so no real solution was found. I suspect the culprit is the hdmi audio driver which is usually bundled with the grapics driver, so update those instead.
