Recently purchased Dell Alienware Aurora computer and SX2210 monitor. Can't get sound from monitor.
Recently purchased Dell Alienware Aurora computer and SX2210 monitor. Can't get sound from monitor. Have spent couple of hours speaking to 2 Dell reps to no avail. One got me to download 50 drivers - no difference. Other got me to purchase and use HDMI cable instead of VGA cable - still no sound. Sound output ok if I connect headphones direct to processor. I don't have soundbar attachment.

You need to connect the monitor and the Tower with an audio cable (HDMI AND VGA are for the video not for audio) the drivers cant help if there is no direct connection from the audio output of the monitor to the input in the tower.
