This individual had the same problem:

You can read what he went through and how his system is hooked up. Without getting my hands on the equipment it's difficult to know why sound isn't working, but to summarize this post you aren't alone. In fact the installer for this other setup said a separate connection for audio would be required.
That doesn't make sense since HDMI supports audio and video. But without having the equipment anything is possible. And in the end, if it gets the audio working, problem solved.
