Satellite U400-11U: no sound with HDMI output

Hi all

I am the proud owner of a model of satellite U400-11U PSU40E running with Windows Vista.
Recently, I tried to view a video on my TV. To do this, I used the HDMI output of the laptop connected to the TV.

I took care to connect the cable to the TV and only after to the laptop.
Then use the quick access key (Fn + F5), poster image on the TV.
Unfortunately, there was no noise.

After some googling, I discovered that I needed to activate the HDMI audio output via the control panel of the sound.
Unofrtunatly, when viewing, I have found no output Audio HDMI, but only speakers and another exit (whose name I forgot--sorry).

I tried to update the video and HDMI audio drivers (I noticed that there is a HDMI audio driver in the perpipherals system, which was considered 'work' of Vista), but it changed nothing.

So, what can I do to activate the audio output over HDMI?

Hello

Please see this FAQ from Toshiba:
http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB9401B00001R01.htm

You will find an instruction how to solve this problem... it s about Qosmio G30 but I think it should work on U400 too...

The point is that you must set the S/PDIF audio output by default!

And don t forget to RESTART the laptop after the change was made.

See you soon

    Hello

    Satellite U400 - 10l belongs to the series of PSU40E and it supports the audio chip Conexant CX20561
    You need the Conexant audio driver in order to get the proper functioning!

    Please note that the Win XP drivers placed on the Toshiba page are released for Win 32 bit OS! Usually, they don t work with 64 bit XP!
    If you need Win XP 64 bit Conexant sound driver you need to search n 3 third-party pages for this driver.

    In addition, you must install Win XP service packs newer!
    SP3 includes many fixes that are necessary and important.
    SP3 must be installed before installing the audio driver.

  • Qosmio G50-129 no sound with HDMI connection

    Hello.

    I have a Quosmio G50-129. Recently, I tried plugging it into my Sony Bravia LCD TV via the HDMI connection.
    I have video output but there is no sound on the TV.

    I tried to set the HDMI as audio device as default and the sound level meter in the sound properties panel appears to show activity, but nothing comes out.

    Can anyone help?

    Hello

    I m not Qosmio G50 owner, I only have the small F50, but it must be identical to yours I think. So first of all, I must say that I never had a problem with the HDMI connection. Everything has worked perfectly since I used the HDMI connection, the first time

    In any case, if you connect your laptop to an external monitor or TV using the HDMI connection, connect the cable first. After this power on the TV and select the HDMI input right channel. Then go on your laptop and if you press FN + F5, you can change between the different options.

    Normally the HDMI output is automatically set as the default audio device, not to follow these workarounds with good screenshots:

  • Satellite U400 - conflict Dynadock DVI with Intel graphic driver

    I try to install the Dynadock DVI on my Satellite U400 / Vista 32 and after reboot, I continue to have the message Igfxext Module has stopped working.
    This is part of the Intel graphics driver.

    When I uninstall the Toshiba Software video Dock and drivers (exhibit Dynadock) components.
    I don't have the problem... but I can't use an external display connected to the Dynadock.

    I updated the Intel display drivers with no difference. Anyone who could help me on this one?

    Thanks in advance.

    Check if you can update the graphics driver using the graphics driver for the Intel page.

  • Satellite U400-138: RAM works with 667 Mhz instead of 800 MHz

    Hello

    I have Satellite U400-138 with 3 GB of RAM (2 + 1 GB sodimm modules)
    I have new kit 2x2gb sodimm-s Corsair PC6400(800MHz)

    When I install new modules, system reported that they are working on 667 Mhz instead of 800 MHz,
    Maybe that's the problem BIOS chipset because that support this frequency.

    Help me, what to do, to run new modules on 800 MHz?

    Hey Buddy

    I doubt that it is a BIOS problem.
    The point is that the speed of the RAM can be lowered and locked by the FSB (front side bus)
    If the FSB supports only 667 Mhz then your RAM 800 Mhz will run only at 667 Mhz

  • Satellite U400-11Z - only begins with battery connected

    Hello!

    Well, I have a Satellite U400 11Z and I was just seeing a web when suddenly my laptop died. My battery was not on my pc and I had only my laptop with the power suply. I re - connect the Power suply, I tried other connections, but nothing, my laptop does not light. I have tried with battery and was okey but my laptop does not detect the power suply so:

    -This problem might be because the Power suply (Toshiba PA3468E 19V 3, 95) was crushed?
    - Or this problem could be because my detect Notebook power suply broke down?

    How can I test the second option?

    Thank you very much and sorry for my English!

    Sergio

    Hi blux,.

    What happens if you connect the AC/DC adapter, while the laptop is turned on? If you turn off the laptop, will charge the battery?

    In my view it is difficult to say what exactly is the problem. In the best case you should ask a friend who has an adapter AC/DC compatible that you can test to determine what the problem is exactly. Otherwise go to a service provider authorized with notebook and AC/DC adapter and leave guys check it! ;)

  • Satellite P300-150 - problems with HDMI output

    I recently reformatted my hard drive due to a nasty virus. I now put my old favourate XP Pro with service pack 3. Never had very well with Vista.
    I managed to find almost all the drivers, I think I need, but the HDMI does not work and I can't seem to find the HDMI for XP/Vista Manager only. XP is too old to support HDMI?

    Is their a fix or a piece of software that will lead the material in an XP environment?

    Hi markjj,

    Normally you n t need a special driver for the HDMI connection. It is only important to install the driver from Toshiba Web site viewing. After that, you can use the HDMI connection and switch between monitors when you press FN + F5. It s the same procedure as in Vista or other operating systems.

    So have you ever tried on XP HDMI connection?

    Test and give us some information. If it doesn't we can try to solve this problem. :)

  • No sound from HDMI output

    so I just plugged my laptop hp Pavilion in my LCD tv with a hdmi cable

    sounds and music can be played on the laptop when it is connected to the tv, but no sound on the tv at all.

    in my sound playback tabs, the device TICK is out HDMI NVIDIA.

    is there a solution to this? (Help please):

    Hello

    HDMI cables are supported, but not all, audio signals compatible HDMI video audio support cards. If your TV has an audio input, you might be able to connect an audio cable separated from the sound card of your computer directly to the TV. Otherwise, you need to connect the different audio signal to an output device, such as external speakers or your stereo.
