The thing is that if you want your sound to come out of your HDMI, your actual PC won't have sound because windows can only use one sound device at a time. Setting it to the HDMI audio will cut off the built in soundcard.
I'm guessing you have a 1080p TV. If you have a 1080p monitor as well (1920x1080) you should be good to go for a cloned monitor experience that is the same on your PC and your TV.
Are you going to be doing PC gaming on this computer? Otherwise, it is probably cheaper to build a cheap $200 HTPC for your home theatre system. If you don't even care about things like streaming, using programs, internet, etc. you could get an ASUS OPlay wireless that will stream media from your PC to your home theatre.
