Hello, everyone. I've just built my PC and it works great, except the issue that there is no sound in my monitor.
Here is the main specs:
  1. CPU - Ryzen 9 9950x
  2. GPU - Gigabyte RTX 5070 Ti
  3. Motherboard - MSI Tomahawk b850
  4. Monitor - LG 27GS75Q
  5. OS - Windows 11 Pro
I've already tried everything I could think of.
  1. No, the monitor volume is not zero.
  2. I updated the motherboard BIOS to the latest version and installed all the drivers.
  3. I installed all the monitor drivers from the manufacturer's website.
  4. I installed the latest Nvidia driver from their app.
  5. I connected the monitor via HDMI cable to the video card slot and the slot on the motherboard, but there is still no sound.
  6. I tried turning the monitor off completely and reconnecting it.
It is not the problem with the monitor's dynamics because after it starts it plays a beep sound. Please help.
 
How is your audio equipment hooked up to your system? The monitor doesn't have speakers on it or so I'm lead to believe reading through the monitor's specs;

but it does have audio pass through courtesy of the audio output port on the monitor.
I'm a complete idiot, specs really say that is has no dynamics. But how it plays a beep sound then, I swear it is not a hallucination.
