I have my TV hooked into the back of my computer via HDMI (mini). Normally when I watch a movie I use VLC and simply "extend" the desktop onto my TV screen so as to mirror what is playing on my computer. I then go to "Playback Devices" in Windows7 (the speaker in the bottom right of the monitor) and switch from desktop speakers to TV and the audio comes out fine. After installing XBMC I can't figure out how in the world to output audio and I have tried everything. Even within XBMC itself, nothing. Can't figure out audio and that makes XBMC useless obviously.
Any help is greatly appreciated

Audio Output Device: Directsound - HDMI*
*Exact name of device will vary depending on your set up, may include Nvidia for your GPU or your TV name
