Hi. I have the following connection:
From pc(running windows 8.1) using a vga to hdmi connection, connecting to my LG Soundbar(sj4) with hdmi and then to lg tv with hdmi.
I double checked the vga to hdmi converter on another tv without soundbar and working fine.
Can it be a software or hardware issue? I tried looking for a driver for the sound bar but cant find anything.

The converter used is vga and audio compatible using the 3.5 audio jack
 


Have you tried a normal 3.5mm connection to the soundbar to see if that works. More often than not those whatever connectors + audio to hdmi don't really work that well. Why not directly connect by hdmi?
