HDMI audio to monitor, to speakers?

[42trays]

I have a Dell monitor with an HDMI input that I'd like to run both a PS4 and my computer, and I want to use the monitor's audio output to some speakers I have set up. I am using an HDMI splitter to get both inputs to connect to the monitor.

With the splitter connected, the PS4 audio and video work like a charm -- audio comes from the speakers, video plays on the monitor.

When I switch the splitter to the computer input, however, I get only video, and no audio to the speakers. Here is what I get from Sound and audio devices:

My graphics card is a Nvidia GeForce GTX 760. When I enter the NVIDIA Control Panel, here is what I get:

I see no way to enable another audio device. The HDMI cable is plugged in to the graphics card and monitor correctly (as evidenced by the video working), but again, no audio output even showing as available. Any ideas?

Your PC can only play 1 audio stream, I don't quite understand what you're trying to do here. Mind explaining that first part a bit more detailed?

Thanks for the response -- I use the splitter to alternate between the computer and the PS4, not at the same time. That would definitely be difficult!

I should mark this solved, as restart solved the issue. Getting HDMI audio through the speakers, from the monitor, from both the PS4 and the computer.

Restart of the computer did the trick.

Okay, glad you figured it out.
