Re: no sound on apple tv

Are you using an HDMi cable to connect? Did you ever have sound or is this a new occurrence

Re: no sound on apple tv

"What do I need to do?" Provide more info. Is it plugged in to a TV directly or a receiver? HDMI or Optical? iTunes content, Netflix, Airplay? Do other devices play sound on your TV setup?

Hi, I cant get any sound from my Macbook Pro to my Apple Tv. The Apple Tv is directly connected to the tv via HDMI-cable and the applications such as Netflix works fine. But there is no sound when I mirror from my Macbook even though I have chosen the audio output to Apple Tv. Anybody know what the problem might be?

I have tried to reboot the Apple Tv, changed audio output settings from 'Auto' to '16 bit', changed 'Dolby Digital' setting from 'Auto' to 'Off'. Nothing helps...

Help very appreciated.

Wow... I am so stupid. Did not even think about that. Here I've tried every possible solution found on the internet and THAT was the problem. Thank you so much!
