I have a 46" LG TV with minimal connections on back. One coaxial, one HDMI, yellow-blue-red-white-and another red A/V connections. My PC has the front and back 3.5mm pin speaker plugs and HDMI- VGA and DVI connections. I tried HDMI but that only gives me video. I had to plug a pair of Logitech S-120 speakers to the back of the pc to get sound with the HDMI for video. Is there a way to just use the TV speakers for TV and when not running TV, just my PC without having to switch things out. If I play a PlayStation game or play a movie on the DVD player through it the TV speakers work and they are both connected to the TV through the red,yellow and white A/V cables.The TV is only about a year or so old. I also tried using a VGA cable to the back of the PC with a VGA to HDMI adapter on the back of the TV and nothing.

go back to hdmi.
On your pc, rt click on the speaker icon down by the time, click on Playback Devices, and then select the one that says its an Digital HD/High Definition Audio device to be your default. That should get it working.

Under Playback devices there's -SPEAKERS 2 VIA High Definition Audio Default Device--- HEADPHONE 2-VIA High Definition Audio Ready---SPDIF Interface (TXO) 2 High Definition Audio Ready--- SPDIF Interface (TX1) 2 High Definition Audio Ready. It currently works on the fist one using the Logitech S-120 speakers but tried clicking on the other two and nothing happened.

Now after messing with the setting even the Logitech speakers won't work now! Never mind, I fixed THAT at least.
