Hello All
I have been wrestling with my hybrid graphics on my lenovo p50 which has an intel skylake 530 and an nvidia quadro m2000m following the wiki i can get video output to an external monitor however i cannot output sound over hdmi or displayport aplay -l and optirun aplay -l do not show my nvidia card in the output even though if i use the optirun command to run intel-virtual-output it works as both my hdmi and displayport outlets are connect to the quadro and not the onboard graphics, My plan is to use the command "tee /proc/acpi/bbswitch <<< ON" to switch on the card and "tee /proc/acpi/bbswitch <<< OFF" to turn it off to hopefully get me a step closer to getting full functionality from my ports, further reading has advised that "tee /proc/acpi/bbswitch <<< OFF" could disable the display completely.
Can anyone offer any advice or opinion on a safe way to achieve my goal ?
Kind Regards
