Volume when using MacBook Pro 2019 with external monitor not working
I am trying to use my external monitor. It is working ok it flickers but I can put up with that. What's wrong is when playing a video there is no sound. On the MBP the volume buttons gray out. Please tell me there is a way to fix this. NOOOOOOO I will not go out and buy yet another monitor ifn you're gonna say it has to be apple. So hoping someone out there can help me on how to set volume with external monitor on macbook pro 2019
TIA
