Why when I connect my computer to my HDTV with VGA cable I get no sound?

Question

I connected my laptop to my hdtv with VGA cables, but I can't get the sound to come out of the TV?? The picture is great, just no sound. Do I also need audio cables?? I asked the worker at the store and he said that I didn't, but then what else do I need to do.

Answer 1

You need audio cables since vga means video graphics array,, its just a video thing, get it,,, you need some cables for audio like rca cables,,, or something like that,,,

rca is the white red and yellow, you need a cable tha goes from headphones jack to Rca white and red(audio ones yellows for video which you have)
