No sound through hdmi

I can connect my tv to my macbook pro through a HDMI cable and the picture shows up perfectly. However, the sound goes through my laptop speakers and not through the tv. When I go into Preferences --> sound --> output, there is not option to select for the hdmi, just the internal speakers. How can I get the sound to go through the tv instead?

i have this same problem, however i downloaded sound flower lion, and now the hdmi option shows up, but i get a message in the window telling me "the selected device has no output controls".

 

i am using a rocketfish adapter and a dynex hdmi cable as suggested to me by a future shop employee

 

any help would b appreciated thanx

If you're MacBook Pro is older than the mid-2010 model then it does not support audio through the Mini-DisplayPort.

no, it is not, but after searching these boards even more i discovered this gem, and now all is good, except that u have to change the audio each time......i think......so i mite get an audio cable to make it easier for my hon to hook up........here is the gem

Re: No sound over Mini DisplayPort to HDMI Adapter

I was having the same issue with my macbook pro.

 

The solution is to hold the option key as you click the speaker icon in the menu bar, a drop down list appears and you can select your tv.

 

 

JasonRay307's response solved the issue for me.

 

I'm using an external Microsoft keyboard, and the equivalent button I pressed, instead of the option key, was ALT.

It also works if you press Option key with the volume button on the keyboard or you can go into the System Prefs and change the sound output preference. Disconnecting the HDMI cable returns the setting to default.

Hurray for JasonRay307. This works perfectly. Thanks. Saved major aggravation.

@onarcok that was the only solution for my situation. Thanks for posting it.

I juat bought a 13" MacBookPro with retina display.  I followed all your suggestions but still no sound coming out of the TV.  I'm planning to call an apple adviser, as I'm still within the 3 months full support timeframe. My sound system on my HDTV TV can come directly from the TV or from a hooked up stereo system.  I tried it either way with no success. I probably will have to get a senior advisor and even then I'm not sure  they'll be up to solving my problem.  If you have any other suggestions let me know. 

Well, a regular Apple support advisor and a seniror advisor could not solve my problem, as I suspected.  They were nice enough and even offered to have my computer checked at an authorized Apple store.  Don't think I'll do it.  I will just have to live with it.

hi maxfs, try doing all of the steps again....i was helping a friend with her laptop (vista) and tv, and she had few aha moments.....she had sound but no pic....we figured it out tho

 

also, do u leopord or lion?

and don't give up.....apple support was not all that great when they tried to help me about something and i had to call 3 times before i got someone who understood the problem and helped me resolve it......these things cost enuff, they should perform the way they r supposed to, and support people r more than compensated for their time

Thanks a bundle, got my HDMI playing as it should!

My macbook is connected through a mini port, it is currently connected and on "mirroring" however when I press and hold option and click on my voum button, it does not give me the option for HDMI or TV..... running Mountain Lion.

The most reliable way to do it is:

 

Go into the System Prefs -> Sound -> click the Output tab and click the speakers you want to use.
