I dunno ... but I think you would need a cable connecting your sound card to your plasma tv's sound input. HDMI doesn't carry audio that I know of. I could be totally mistaken though. EDIT: check out this site see if it answers your question. http://www.hdmi.org/learningcenter/faq.aspx#1 |

HDMI should carry audio, but the Nvidia GFX on your laptop is probably the culprit. (ATI 3XXX cards have built-in 5.1 audio, Nvidia cards have plugs which allow you to pass audio through). |

nvidia cards only have the bypass on desktop parts i believe. |

Yep, I have 4 sources of audio thanks to that (and I still have to use this Xfi) |
