[Question] HDMI Audio

Hello all!
I used Chiz's guide on how to set up USB audio and i worked just fine. My problem now is that audio only comes through USB even when HDMI is plugged in. I would like to be able to plug my game boy into a TV and use it like a console. Any thoughts or suggestions?

USB audio doesn't support this unfortunately. I don't know if a workaround was found.

I don't have any way to test it, but does alsa not provide such functionality? Like set output device by hands. Or even by just pull down USB card in alsabase.conf? Or something like that.

Oh my dear Lord.... Just read through the discussion following the guide from @Chiz - think I'm ditching my Sabrent and going PWM!!

Moving this to the hardware/raspi section since it's not a guide. :)
