I've spoken with an Apple tech over the phone and went through a number of reboot (while holding down certain keys, etc.) to no avail. I've also updated my macmini whenever an update is released (within a few days). (In not sure if I had this before or not - dont completely remember seeing it, but vaguely do.) I notice that when I switch input on my TV aerial to the MacMini (HDMI 1) I get a little yellow triangle with exclamation mark in it, and the text: 'AUDIO only' at the bottom right of the tv screen. The speaker icon in the top right of the screen is also greyed-out and not changeable. When I switch from internal speakers to HDMI, I notice that the sound volume bar at the bottom of the screen goes faint, and I can't adjust the volume using the sound keys on my keyboard (bluetooth) When I say it is not an option, I have two lines under name and types as follows: However, about 3 days ago, sound output via TV was no longer an option power, and reconnected as I had to re-setup my tv (all reconnected in the same outlets via HDMI) Then about a month ago I was back in the Sound preferences and found that I was able to get audio output via the TV speakers.Ībout a week or so ago I disconnected all incl. power, and reconnected as I had to re-setup my tv (all reconnected in the same outlets via HDMI) (also got rid of the stereo at this point) Somewhere between then and a month ago I disconnected all incl. Sound output via TV speakers was not working when I first connected the two (about 4 mos ago)Ĭouldn't figure it out- and just used an headphone cable to connect the mac mini to a stereo I have a Mac Mini 2010 connected to a Sony Bravia HD TV via an HDMI cable Krusdublin: I am experiencing similar issues with no real solution yet:
