Laptop: Dell E1705
LCD: Sharp Aquos 37"

I am connecting video via DVI-HDMI and it's working OK. It's going on Input 5.

The problem is the audio, I got the Y cable (red and white) going also to input 5 and there is no sound at all.

Do I need a driver? The laptop speakers are working fine and so is the headset. I tried other inputs like 3 and 4 also with no sound.

Could it be a setting on the Sharp Aquos?

Need to tell RCA audio input to work with the HDMI.
