when connecting my Macbook Pro to an LG TV, I can't get the sound on the TV

I'd like to add that I tried both through RGB and HDMI. My problem is that the TV loudspeakers do not appear in the "output" sub-chapter of the "sound" chapter in the preferences dashboard of the Mac Book Pro.


thanks in advance

What model/year Macbook Pro? The older Macbook Pro mini display port does not carry audio. You would have to connect audio cables as well as using the mini display port to hdmi adapter/cable.
