      Hello, I cannot get sound at my TV. If I select the jack options, it works, and I can to use my speakers, but if I select the HDMI option, it doesn´t work and my TV doesn´t make any sound. I tried the same HDMI wire with the same Raspberry with Kody, and there the sound was perfect. What can I be doing wrong?
      Thank you so much.

          @kenibure you need to open up the file /boot/config.txt and remove the hashtag from this line:

          #hdmi_drive=2
          

          So it looks like this:

          hdmi_drive=2
          

          Then save the file and reboot your system.
