Do you get sound out of the speakers connected to the computer directly?

If you do, but not from the TV then you have 2 options:
1) connect an audio cable to the tv. (My tv has that option. Not all do though)
2) you figure out how to send sound through the cable between the videocard and 
tv. For that, I would have a look into sound drivers for the audio in the card 
(if it has a sound device) and also in alsa (or similar) mixer settings.

FYI, the only time I hooked up a PC to my TV it was with a VGA cable and simple 
audio cable.
Back then, I didn't have HDMI outputs.
