Hi,

I'm using Windows 8.1 current specs are

Asus z97 pro wifi mobo
i54690k
asus mx279h monitor

I can't seem to get the speakers in the monitor to work over HDMI. If I use VGA as well as a 3.5mm audio jack from mobo to monitor I can get sound but I really want to figure out why HDMI won't work. I've got video over HDMI but no audio.

Using the mobo HDMI output at the moment still waiting for my gpu to arrive.

I've installed the latest drivers with Realtek HD audio manager and done as much basic trouble shooting as I can. Most threads seem to be for people who have issues with TVs and not checking their audio output.

When I go into Device Manager my High Definition Audio Device issues an error code 10 stating the device cannot start. But the Realtek High Definition Audio device is functioning properly.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Over HDMI the only audio outputs I have are the Realtek digital output and optical output neither of which seem to do anything
