  • Answer:

Sure, but you have make sure the settings are correct to "tell" the computer to send audio over HDMI. In most cases the default will be the analog output. I can't tell you how to do it since every hardware setup is different.

Yes it's possible, HDMI can transfer both video and audio. Make sure the HDMI cable is connected to your computer first. You will need to go and configure the sound settings on your computer. You will need to switch it to the HDMI interfere. Now you will receive audio. The audio signal will be sent through your... HDMI cable > HDTV > Home theater speaker system.

Most computers do not send the audio signal on their HDMI output at all. You will have to use a separate audio cable, like you're doing. Yes, HDMI is capable of carrying both video and audio, so this is a limitation of the laptop, not the cable or your theater system.
