Hi

I am using ST2220L Dell monitor and Airtel HD DTH. I could able top hear the sounds from the speakers while using Airtel. When the laptop is connected thru VGA I am not able to hear the sounds from monitor speaker but from the laptop instead.

How to rectify it.

A VGA cable can only transmit analog video signals and not audio as opposed to the HDMI cable which can transmit both video and audio signals. I suppose you have your STB connected to the LCD via the HDMI cable which is why you are able to hear sounds while viewing the channels through the STB.

To hear the output from the LCD speaker when you connect a laptop, buy a 3.5mm male to male TRS cable and connect it from the headphones' TRS jack of the laptop to the LCD's audio input TRS jack.

HTH.
