Why can't Windows 10 send audio to my TV?

The video is obviously coming through fine. I do not have a GFX card installed. No sound card either.

. I have a Vizio D32x-D1 TV. The sound is on. My motherboard is a MSI Z97 PC Mate.

If I disable Realtek it still won't route the sound to my TV.

did you install the motherboard audio driver as it should and check if you have hdmi apply on both the pc and tv input .

Yes. There's no way possible I could ask this question if it weren't. The video is fine. The only way the audio works is if I route it through Realtek. M$'s setup won't work. Latest driver and all that.

Microsoft windows provides a stripped down version of the intel video driver/ intel audio driver.
If you are using the Microsoft generic driver, I would try the motherboard version.
it is kind of old. I might even just go to intel and download the current version.

I assume you are using a HDMI cable (short, high quality one)
I would also make sure the motherboard bios is updated (not sure if it would have an effect on the CPU gpu )
