Latitude E5540 no sound output over HDMI cable
When I connect the laptop to a TV using a HDMI cable, there's no sound output via the cable, the sound comes out of the laptop only.
I tried to search for the play-back device by (showing disconnected/hidden devices) but I can only see the Real-Tek Audio device, and there's no HDMI audio play-back device on the list.
I tried uninstalling both of the Audio and Video drivers and re-installing them once again, but still the same problem.
I have an audio device "Realtek ALC3226" and a video device "Intel HD Graphics 4600" , there's are the two drivers that I uninstalled and re-installed, but same problem.
I saw that there's another nVIDIA driver available on the dell website, I tried to install it but the software gives me an error advising that the hardware is not supported.
Specs of my Latitude E5540 can be found here:

Any Ideas ?

You need to click on the audio icon in the notification area of the Task Bar and select Output Devices. Then select HDMI as the default audio.
