Might be worth checking if the smplayer front-end is messing something up, by going straight through mpv. My last steps for playing video through the TV, with the audio going there as well: Get a list of all the audio devices on your system. $ mpv --audio-device=help Use the correct device in your video command. DISPLAY=:0.1 mpv --audio-device=alsa/hdmi:CARD=NVidia,DEV=0 -fs video.mkv Also check what Mark mentioned about muted channels on the output card through alsamixer. Regards, Arve
