Hi all,

I'm having some trouble getting HDMI sound output from my Asus P8Z77-V DELUXE with ALC898 realtek onboard. From what I understand, it is possible to get hdmi sound output from the board.

Basically, I'm trying to run DVI video from my AMD 7950 video card to my monitor (no hdmi input on it, just dvi) and the hdmi sound output from the motherboard to my receiver (Denon 1612). Is this doable?

I've played around with the playback devices in Win7 and made sure the realtek hdmi output was selected as default. Also, I've selected the SPDIF out type as HDMI in the motherboard bios. Optical output works fine when selected as a playback device, but no go from HDMI. I'm at a loss.

If anyone has run into something similar or could weigh in with some advice, I'd appreciate it. Let me know if I can provide more information.
 
cant do it. get an AMD DVI-HDMI adapter, and run it from your 7950.

only way to run it out of your intel, is to set up dual display.
