Can you post, which soundcards are recognized ?

there's an update just posted in the last hour that includes a new nvidia driver which specifically mentions fixing a sound over displayport bug.

Keruskerfuerst: it recognizes my HDMI monitor, my USB headset, and built-in audio stereo

FIXED

i was doing some more googling and found a thread that suggested removing everything in ~/.config/pulse/ and restarted pulseaudio . then i when to the configuration tab of pulseaudio and under GP104High Definition Audio Controller in the configuration tab there was a drop down menu that was set to (HDMI 1) witch that is the HDMI port that has been working, but now when i go to change the profile (HDMI 3) was no longer showing (unplugged)(unavailable) next to it show i changed to that and now i am getting audio thew my Display-port that my TV was connected to.

i tried that once before the update came out so i think it was the combination of the two that fixed it.

thanks everyone for you help, this will make my experience with Manjaro a lot better.
