Does thunderbolt support the HDMI audio signal?

I often do presentation that include audio. None of the Thunderbolt to HDMI cables carry the audio signal. I typically end up using my Apple TV or an external speaker via the audio out. Does Thunderbolt support audio? I find no documentation on this.

Yes it does if your TB to HDMI adapter supports it and the cable.


If you are having problems getting it to work go into the Sound applet of System Preferences and make sure the Output is to HDMI.
