      Thanks in advance. I’ve been searching the forum and have not found an solution for this. Currently I am running a Raspberry Pi 3 B. I have MM loaded and some modules loaded. I have a HDMI to DVI cable attached going to my monitor. Any help is appreciated.

      Thanks,
      Bill

        @BillW dvi does not carry sound so you would need a separate cable

        My main computer has dvi, monitor is HDMI. Uses sep cable to monitor

          I should have included in my first post, but I did attach a separate cable for sound to speakers, but that didn’t work so I tried earphones to make sure. Thanks for confirming that for me. Any other suggestions?

                  Sound is going out the HDMI cable

                        Ok, tried all three but no luck, not sure what to do next. Here’s a copy of my config file if that may help

                        For more options and information see

                        http://rpf.io/configtxt

                        Some settings may impact device functionality. See link above for details

                        uncomment if you get no picture on HDMI for a default “safe” mode

                        #hdmi_safe=1

                        uncomment this if your display has a black border of unused pixels visible

                        and your display can output without overscan

                        #disable_overscan=1

                        uncomment the following to adjust overscan. Use positive numbers if console

                        goes off screen, and negative if there is too much border

                        #overscan_left=16
                        #overscan_right=16
                        #overscan_top=16
                        #overscan_bottom=16

                        uncomment to force a console size. By default it will be display’s size minus

                        overscan.

                        #framebuffer_width=1280
                        #framebuffer_height=720

                        uncomment if hdmi display is not detected and composite is being output

                        #hdmi_force_hotplug=1

                        uncomment to force a specific HDMI mode (this will force VGA)

                        #hdmi_group=1
                        #hdmi_mode=1

                        uncomment to force a HDMI mode rather than DVI. This can make audio work in

                        DMT (computer monitor) modes

                        #hdmi_drive=2

                        uncomment to increase signal to HDMI, if you have interference, blanking, or

                        no display

                        #config_hdmi_boost=4

                        uncomment for composite PAL

                        #sdtv_mode=2

                        #uncomment to overclock the arm. 700 MHz is the default.
                        #arm_freq=800

                        Uncomment some or all of these to enable the optional hardware interfaces

                        #dtparam=i2c_arm=on
                        #dtparam=i2s=on
                        #dtparam=spi=on

                        Uncomment this to enable the lirc-rpi module

                        #dtoverlay=lirc-rpi

                        Additional overlays and parameters are documented /boot/overlays/README

                        Enable audio (loads snd_bcm2835)

                        #dtparam=audio=on
                        [pi0]
                        dtoverlay=dwc2
                        [all]
                        start_x=1
                        gpu_mem=128
                        dtoverlay=googlevoicehat-soundcard
                        display_rotate=1

                        Sorry for the large font, not well verse with the editing portion of this forum.
