As I previously stated the addendum was included with an HP Pavilion that was 1 year newer than the one I own and the process worked just fine, just make sure that your HP uses the Realtek Audio card.ġ. Note: I used Windows Vista Home Edition on an Hewlett-Packard Pavilion Media Center M8430F. If you have any comments or questions please post them below. I decided to post this with the hope of helping others that may encounter this issue. I went home and followed the instructions, two minutes later I was listening to the audio streaming from my computer using the HDMI connection. His computer was 1 year younger than mine, but I made a copy of the document nevertheless. The addendum included with his computer contained the instructions which detailed how to enable the sound using the HDMI connection. I was helping a good friend of mine with his newly purchased HP Pavilion when I noticed that there was an addendum to the manual that came with the computer. After a couple of hours of frustration I gave up and connected the audio via coax instead. When I initially connected the computer to the TV with the HDMI cable I could not get the sound to come through. I bought an HP Pavilion Media Center PC about a year ago and not until recently was the audio from the HDMI connection working.
