Another pain in my craw is that my SPDIF cable doesn't work. I've messed with it for hours and hours, but just can't get any audio over that HDMI cable no matter what I do. I had to compromise with the headphone out option.
What specific card do you have? Are you using a dedicated sound card or something integrated on your motherboard? I'm assuming you're using a 2xx nvidia card since those ones all have to pass audio through a SPDIF connector on the motherboard/sound card to the video card.
When you try to select the digital out is your computer still outputting the sound from the headphone or speaker port?
