Our audio sources are: a Laptop - Apple or PC, a PC, and a Christie Brio.
The audio is being sent from the graphics card over HDMI from the source (PC Brio or Mac).
On a PC you have to change the 'Default Playback Device" in the audio settings.
You should be able to test this with an HDMI monitor that has speakers or on a TV that has an HDMI port.
In Pandoras Box, we added the audio sources (4 in our cases) from the Direct Show folder into the Projects tab.
Since, on this show we do not have an ASIO audio device, we have to put this Audio Asset that we've added to a Video Layer (NOT an Audio Track!!!).
Next, turn up the volume of the audio card through Windows (in the task bar usually) and test.
I've also done it exactly this way with SDI signal that had embedded audio in it using a Blackmagic SDI Card.
The nice thing about this setup is that we have a Quad capture card and can mix between all of the sources instead of having to choose only 1.
I hope this helps,
