Q: No audio on LG display via USB-C
I just picked up an LG 27UD88 display for a MacBook. The monitor supports USB-C and claims to support audio over USB-C. The MacBook is connected solely via the supplied USB-C cable.
- MacBook powered & charging?
- Video working?
- Display USB hub working?
- Audio working through display speakers?
The MacBook definitely sees the LG monitor as an audio output device. System Preferences > Sound > Output lists two options
- Internal Speakers (Built-in)
- LG Ultra HD (DisplayPort)
However, when the LG is selected, there is no audio. Volume level on the display is maxed.
Any suggestions?

Could you check if the monitor actually has speakers built in? I was considering this monitor, too, but i think it only has a 3,5mm speaker out (which could refer to the option "internal speaker").
