Hy every one :wave:
I have a Apple led cinema display 24' and a XFX 5770 graphic card.
I use a DSDT patched by Trauma to enable HDMI audio.
SL 10.6.6
I tried for weeks nows to have sound via my screen (my wife does not like the speakers I had to use ;)
Today, my daughter was playing on the windows session :rolleyes: (the audio via screen is working in windows !) and suddenly she removed the minidisplay port ... no more image of course but the audio was still there !!! :eek:
I put the MDP cable back and the image was back ... then I removed the USB cable and the sound disappeared!
So the sound for the Apple cinema display is not in the MDP but in the USB port !
That is why I cannot get it via MDP I suppose ! :confused:
I'm a perfect noob so this point is probably already well known, but if it is not this could help in "injecting" audio for the Apple display users.
If any one have a solution ? :)
Sorry for my typically french english :lol:

Hello
I make the question and the answer :cool:
The solution is simple : put the USB cable in the primary connector (the yellow one on my MOBO) and not in a secondary one (blake one) and ... miracle, you can choose the audio on screen option and it works ! :thumbup:
