Hello D005,

Depending on your model of MacBook Pro, it may not output sound through the Mini DisplayPort of your Mac. If that is the case, you will need to connect the headphone port of your Mac to your audio-in port on your TV.

I recommend reviewing the following article to determine if your Mini DisplayPort outputs audio:
