Hi, before I state my problem I just want to clarify that this didn't occur before updating to windows 8.1. Before the update my sound would switch between the tv and the laptop speakers automatically when as I unplug and plug in my hdmi cable. Now, I put my laptop to sleep when not in use or when transporting for obvious reasons and I really don't want to have to reboot every time I connect my tv.
Now my problem is, every time I plug in my tv, I get the usual switch over but the audio never gets to the tv. It shows up as usual in the playback devices and is the default. I'm not sure if it's drivers and ASUS doesn't have any audio drivers up for windows 8.1. I have read that this is a common problem with everyone. I'm not sure what else to do other than go through a lengthy process to backup and factory install my laptop back to 8 or wait for updated drivers.
The laptop: ASUS K55A w/ 8gb ram and upgraded wireless card.
