It's easy, but it should be automatic:

 

Right click on the speaker icon in the notification area.

Select "Playback Devices"

In the Playback Tab, right click on HDMI and then select "Set as default Device" and then OK.

 

When you wnat to go back to the laptop speakers, set it to Speakers/Headphones.
