Q: Audio not passing through

I purchased my MiniDisplay port to HDMI adapter from Apple and it doesn't pass the audio through.  It doesn't make sense to me that they would sell an adapter that doesn't work like the article above describes.  Any advice?  Am I missing something?

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.3)

    The adaptor almost certainly works as described.  How old is your MBP?  MBPs earlier than mid-2010 do not support audio through the mini-displayport - as described in the article you reference. If your MBP is a recent one, then option click on the speaker icon on the menu bar and check under 'Output device'.
