    I presume you mean your monitor has HDMI?
    When you mean the sound is gone, is this when you plug in headphones as well?

    Assume he was using HDMI to HDMI on a TV or Monitor that had integrated speakers.

    OP using the adapter youve used there sound cant be passed through to the monitor/tv. It only adapts the video, on HDMI cables carry audio too.

    You need to get a 3.5mm TRS to 3.5mm TRS cable and connect that to your motherboards output and the monitors input.

    connect it to the audio out green socket at the back of the pc,
    OR the front audio out 3.5mm port on the pc.
    GO to monitor menu, audio settings, set audio volume to 90 per cent approx.
