slumpy5 Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 I have an Onkyo 605 7.1 Home Theater receiver. I bought this specifically to have surround sound for my custom gaming PC. I have 3 speakers for left/right/center channels(about to purchase more). I have the speakers connected to the receiver but when I use HDMI, I can't get any sound. Are there any better ways to do this? I don't particularly want to have to use the Home Theater as the 'middle man's for the video output for my computer, but if I have to, I will. Thank you!

Paul R Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 HDMI sound can be a bit tricky - have you selected the HDMI as the audio output? Alternatively, you might trying using an optical connection. Less finicky in many ways. -Paul Anyone who considers protocol unimportant has never dealt with a cat DAC. Robert A. Heinlein Link to comment
plissken Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 I take it you are using windows. Go into the Sound Control Panel and see if the HDMI is set as the default playback device. Link to comment
