Mountain Lion using Apple TV as Audio output

[wamsankas]

Hey all have the new retina display just updated to mountain lion. I am trying to mirror my display to the apple tv along with the audio. seems like the audio is just sticking to my mac. i have tried to go to system preferences and choose the audio out as the appletv but when i attempt to click it just bounces immediately back to the internal speakers option. anyone getting the same thing?

I have the same exact issue. No fix here 🙁

Have you tried resetting your AppleTV?

yeah, there are no special settings...it just worked out of the box for me, try reseting all hardware...also make sure your apple tv is up to date.

Re-Boot

reboot the mac when this happens. slightly annoying but a restart sorts it out.

Go Option-Speaker(tray) and bring up sound preferences, you should see a second audio device AIRPLAY. If u don't see then go into the ATV's menu and enable AUDIO to on or auto.
