Cannot get HDMI signal

[agent_kith]

AK, thank you.  I tried MPD, via HDMI, but no luck.  No sound, no connection. Tomorrow I will see if I can disable VGA via the BIOS, although I have never used a VGA video monitor on the machine.  I have only used a monitor via HDMI.

Thanks

No need to disable VGA in the BIOS, all good if there's no VGA monitor connected.

What DAC are you using? Note that some DAC uses a HDMI connector but it's only doing audio - DSD. These are HDMI signals.

For HDMI audio to work you need to connect it to something like an AVR. If your PC monitor has built audio out or speakers, you should get audio then. Looking at the status (in use), HDMI audio is working AFAICT.
