Hi,
I just purchased an Intel NUC DC3217IYE along with 16 GB of RAM and a 256 GB SSD (crucial). I have installed a fresh copy of Windows 7 Pro and all of the intel NUC drivers from the intel site. I have a digital reciever (5.1 channel) on the output of one of the HDMI ports. A 23" lcd is then hooked up on the output of the digital receiver. I am unable to get sound to work. No devices are present in the sound area of the control panel. I ahve tried showing disabled devices and still no luck. In device manager the "intel(R) Display Audio" shows up fine.
The other thing I tried was using the default windows 7 audio drivers instead of the intel ones. With this driver both HDMI audio outputs show up in the sound control panel but always show as unplugged.
Is there any known HDMI compatibility issues with digitial recievers that I should be aware of? Shouldn't the ports show up in the window above even when disconnected with the stock intel drivers?
Any help with this problem would be greatly appreciated. I have done a bunch of reserach trying to find other people with the same problem and have tried several different drivers. I am about ready to throw this thing out the window.
Cheers, Shane
