Kurt Woolford (kwoolf1) said on 2012-04-01:

Thanks Mark. I read your other posts and tried that procedure earlier. My problem was different. I had to disable HDMI audio in the EDID settings to allow analog audio to pass through. Countless hours of trial and error but that's the challenge that makes that makes finding the solution even more rewarding. Cheers.
