Change audio device automatically when connecting HDMI cable? How?

Featured Replies

Posted

I bought a laptop with a HDMI connection to make things easier for me when

I'm watching movies on the TV.

When I connect the HDMI cable to the TV Vista detects it and automatically

extends the desktop to the TV just like I want it to. The sound however is

still coming from the speakers on the laptop until I change the default audio

device manually in the audio properties (it's realtek HD Audio by the way).

Is there any way to make Vista understand that also the audio output should

be switched to HDMI automatically whenever I connect the cable? If not, how

do I go about making some kind of executable or regfile that I just can

doubleclick when I want to use HDMI for sound and vice versa?

 

Thanks in advance!
