dear sifus, i have a 5.1 speaker and a hd tv. Pls correct my setup if wrong.

1) normal usage using tv sound = hdtv via hdmi > PC
2) during movies / games
= display would be hdtv via hdmi > PC
= audio would be avr via optical > PC

the reason for this type of connection so that i wont be switching on the avr for normal usage. However, with this connection for movies I will have to mute the TV rite? kinda troublesome.

Pls enlight. tqvm!

I think no more better solution, either I mute tv volume or change to external speaker in tv setting (watching local tv channel also go to avr?  doh.gif  haha... ) 

but my connection more simple way, which is only:
PC-->HDMI-->AVR-->HDMI-->TV
so for normal pc usage, I just using my USB tiny pc monitor soundbar, settle. but only using main screen which is my pc touch screen..
