No Sound from the HDMI on my GT 710 with Laka 2.2

I have scoured the forums and have tried every manual configuration possible in the config.txt file but i never get any sound passed out to the tv attached on the HDMI output. There is never any issue with video. It’s worth noting that in the GUI i am never given any options for audio devices, hence why I have been editing the config file manually.

The PC is a core 2 DUO, 4GB ram, GT 710 and i’m running the 64 bit version of Lakka.

Below are all the logs i could pull of the PC.

With a Core 2 Duo? I don’t know…maybe try the experimental builds for that GT 710. http://www.lakka.tv/articles/2019/01/16/lakka-generic-nvidia-experimental-builds/

Nice one @Shockwave i will give it a go!

No joy sadly. I still see errors like previous…
