I have an Acer Aspire V3-572G.

The problem begins yesterday. I was playing Mario Kart Wii, on a emulator, while my laptop was connected to the TV. There were no problems, the audio and video were fine. I left, disconnecting the laptop from the TV. Then I came back and tried to do the same thing that afternoon. I did not shutdown or update the computer during that time, it was sleeping. The problem was, the audio was coming out of the laptop, not the TV as it had before. I checked the playback devices, and the HDMI audio was listed as disconnected. Odd as well, was that the TV was listed as a monitor in devices, and I am fairly certain it was listed as a TV before.

I tried this with different TVs and HDMI cables, the result is the same.

In a few words, the HDMI audio used to work, and now it does not.

That is what I see in playback devices while the HDMI cable is connected. Keep in mind that at the same time the image translates perfectly into the TV.
