Hello everybody.
I have a problem I hope you'll be able to help me with:
I have connected my tablet (Ainol Novo7 Venus) that runs on Android 4.1 to my LG 42LN5204 TV via HDMI but I would like to run the audio through my old Harman Kardon AVR 1150 AV receiver via a jack headphone output. Of course, as soon as I plug the hdmi, audio goes through the TV. Is there a way to disable the HDMI audio in Android, so it goes through the jack?

There's only two hdmi on the TV, no other audio or video connection
There's no hdmi on the receiver, so it looks like I have no other choice but connect it this way.

Thanks in advance for your help.
