No sound over DisplayPort to HDMI cable [Lenovo tiny PC]

dormantrod · June 13, 2026 at 12:59 PM

I’m a first-time user of libreELEC.

I installed it successfully on a Lenovo ThinkCentre M710q Tiny PC. This is connected to an old Sony Bravia TV using a DisplayPort to HDMI cable.

When I play a video file, the sound comes from the Lenovo’s speaker. Very quietly.

Any suggestions as to how to get the sound to the TV? I can’t see any options in the settings menu for either LibreELEC or the Sony.

Make sure Kodi is in Advanced or Expert mode to see all audio options. If nothing is showing; put Kodi in debug mode and then run "pastekodi" and share the URL generated so we can see what audio config if anything is seen.
