Got my butt kicked by windows 10 and intel last week.
I have an HDMI switch and splitter setup for an AV rig (church) that I was trying to use the windows 10 half of my Lenovo T440s with. However, the audio will not work; HDMI (displayport) audio doesn't show in device manager and Intel's Control Center shows the external display as not supporting audio. Direct connect it to things and (if memory serves) it does work.
Compounding the issue is that I'm forced to use Lenovo's drivers... as the generic intel ones refuse to install as they detect it's a lenovo system (even with the lenovo drivers removed).
The Arch Linux half of the laptop has no issue... sends audio direct. But, Gnome 3 isn't AV friendly, so that's out for the moment (barring a second GUI install for the AV user).
Anybody know of a way to force it to always say HDMI audio is supported? I'm likely going to eventually buy&build them an AVPC (with a Blu-Ray drive and decoder) and I'd like to know if Intel graphics are going to be a problem due to overly "helpful" drivers.

In latter versions of WMC with 7, they removed the ability for DVD playback.... I don't let them update and they're on a portion of the network that has no access to the outside world. Yup, I still use those silly 'big green button' remotes.
