Q: Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapter, no sound

I've bought a Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapter when connected to my SONY BRAVIA, it only showed video, the audio sound still came from my laptop not from my tv? shouldn't HDMI support both audio and video

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.3)

    I believe the 2010 and newer ones support audio through the HDMI cable. Earlier MBPs will require one to tap the audio output port and run separate wires to the RCA audio input connectors on the TV.  Also you might check your Sony user manual to make certain that you have it set up correctly as well as the MBP.
