Plug in the HDMI to the TV and set the TV to HDMI input. Go to the Vista Contol panel on the PC, to Hardware & Sounds, then Sound.
The control panel will show the computer speakers
as the default hardware. Highlight the HDMI icon, click the Default button! That's it:
obvious when I realized "default" was not "return to default settings",
but setting the default device. Duh... always simple once you see it.
Thanks, Rick Russell
