Troubleshooting
What should I do if I do not hear the sound from the sound output device connected to the HDMI output port, optical output port, or headphones jack?

The HDMI output port is functional only when your computer is in SPEED mode.
❑You need to change the sound output device if you want to hear sound from the device connected to a port, such as the HDMI output port, optical output port, or headphones jack. For the detailed procedure, see How do I change the sound output device? (page 210).
❑If you still hear no sound from the sound output device, follow these steps:
1 Follow steps 1 to 4 in How do I change the sound output device? (page 210).
2 On the Playback tab, select the HDMI or S/PDIF icon and click Properties.
3 Click the Advanced tab.
4 Select the sample rate and bit depth (for example, 48000 Hz, 16 bit) which the device supports. 5 Click OK.
