No sound out of the hdmi cable.

Hope this is the right forum part.

I use the generic grafic of the Intel i7 4770k on a z97 board with win 8.1.

My problem is that i get no sound out of the hdmi cable when I connect the computer to a tv-set.

Well, a little googling on the problem gets the answer:
In Windows8.1 there shall be both an Intel grafic driver AND an Intel graf sound driver to get this to work.

There are tons of threads dealing with the problem on the net but here is a thread that summarizes it
quite well. At the end of the tread is says that Intel finally has solved this problem and that you shall download the latest driver set.

Here i a guy that download the driver set directly from the intel support site.

I do not want to do that for the moment, not really sure if the driver set I get has been evaluated on the ASUS board.

The big problem is that on the ASUS support site you only can download the Intel grafic driver and not
the sound driver. At ASUS the graf driver ver. is in 10--- someting, while it on the Intel site it is up to 15---.

So, ASUS please update your supportsite with the latest Intel graf and sound driver set, or please tell me if it safe to download it directly from the Intel support site?

Perhapes you even have other suggestions?

Thank you.
