Hello qais197.


Thank you for using Apple Support Communities. It sounds like you're experiencing issues with no sound when connecting your devices to an HDMI adapter. We can understand how this would be an issue. Allow us to investigate this issue and assist in any way we can.


First, we would need to isolate if it's the HDMI cable, TV or devices. If you attempt to use a different TV, or HDMI cable, does this specific issue continue to occur? While you have your device connected, open your Control Center and confirm that audio is coming out in the correct path:


Use and customize Control Center on iPhone - Apple Support

Use AirPlay to stream audio - Apple Support


You'll see the AirPlay audio option listed under "Stream audio from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch".


Feel free to keep us updated on your results. Best of luck.
