On the basis of my experience w/ my Lenovo laptop which also had HDMI 
case speakers which did not play w/ linux until I boot parameter 
'radeon-ized' it, at which time linux did play thru' the case speakers...

... but at /all/ times, both default Win (which played thru' the case) 
and default linux (which did NOT play thru' the case) but DID play thru' 
the headset...

... the 'gain' of functional case speakers, in terms of sound quality, 
wasn't worth the trouble.

For a very long time, I did not even /know/ the case speakers didn't 
work on that device because of how I use it and do NOT normally listen 
to sound on it.  Once I started listening to sound in the process of 
troubleshooting what worked and what did not work, I discovered that...

... the case speakers aren't *WORTH* listening to.  Even the world's 
cheapest ear phones sound was superior to that of the case speakers.

My advice to you regarding this particular device, considering your 
other device options:

  - forget about getting the sound to come from those case speakers
  - if you are going to listen to sound, listen via the headset plug 
only or not at all
